Fin1-PP1 Helps Clear Spindle Assembly Checkpoint Protein Bub1 from Kinetochores in Anaphase

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
Summary: The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) monitors chromosome attachment defects, and the assembly of SAC proteins at kinetochores is essential for its activation, but the SAC disassembly process remains unknown.

A screen for kinetochore-microtubule interaction inhibitors identifies novel antitubulin compounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Protein assemblies named kinetochores bind sister chromatids to the mitotic spindle and orchestrate sister chromatid segregation. Interference with kinetochore activity triggers a spindle checkpoint mediated arrest in mitosis, which frequently ends in ...

Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane-Fly Spermatocytes Treated With Taxol (Paclitaxel) Accelerate When Their Kinetochore Microtubules Are Cut: Evidence for Spindle Matrix Involvement With Spindle Forces

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2018
Various experiments have indicated that anaphase chromosomes continue to move after their kinetochore microtubules are severed. The chromosomes move poleward at an accelerated rate after the microtubules are cut but they slow down 1–3 min later and move ...

The Saccharomyces cerevisiae kinetochore

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1996
Accurate chromosome segregation is DApenDAnt on a specialized chromosomal structure, the kinetochore/centromere. The only essential constituent of the S. cerevisiae kinetochore established today is CBF3, a multisubunit complex that binds to S. cerevisiae centromere DNA.

Chromosome congression by CENP-E and CENP-Q dependent pathways [PDF]

open access: yes
The timely and efficient movement of chromosomes to the spindle equator during mitosis is a prerequisite for accurate chromosome segregation.

Probing the Architecture of the Budding Yeast Inner Kinetochore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Chromosome segregation must occur with fidelity to maintain genome stability and prevent aneuploid disorders. During segregation, the kinetochore is assembled onto centromeric DNA and achieves the attachment of microtubule plus ends, which provide the ...

The budding yeast kinetochore: less simple than expected

open access: yes, 2000
We focus on the established kinetochore proteins of the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The location and functional evidence for each kinetochore protein is summarized along with the data that supports protein-protein and genetic interactions ...

Inferring the Forces Controlling Metaphase Kinetochore Oscillations by Reverse Engineering System Dynamics.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2015
Kinetochores are multi-protein complexes that mediate the physical coupling of sister chromatids to spindle microtubule bundles (called kinetochore (K)-fibres) from respective poles. These kinetochore-attached K-fibres generate pushing and pulling forces,

The kinetochore protein KNL1 links kinetochore-microtubule attachment and checkpoint signaling during mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
