Objective A leading cause of death among scleroderma (SSc) patients, interstitial lung disease (ILD) remains challenging to prognosticate. The discovery of biomarkers that accurately determine which patients would benefit from close monitoring and aggressive therapy would be an essential clinical tool.

The roles of kinetochore of micronucleus in mitosis of HeLa cells: a live cell imaging study
Background Micronuclei (MNi) are extensively used to evaluate genotoxic effects and chromosome instability. However, the roles of kinetochore of MN in mitosis have not been completely addressed.

Chromosomal instability (CIN) is a hallmark of cancer that contributes to tumour heterogeneity and other malignant properties. Aberrant centromere and kinetochore function causes CIN through chromosome missegregation, leading to aneuploidy ...

Kinetochore microtubules shorten by loss of subunits at the kinetochores of prometaphase chromosomes [PDF]
ABSTRACT The site of tubulin subunit dissociation was determined during poleward chromosome movement in prometaphase newt lung cell mitotic spindles using fluorescence photobleaching techniques and nocodazole-induced spindle shortening.

The underlying etiologies of genetic congenital microcephaly are complex and multifactorial. Recently, with the exponential growth in the identification and characterization of novel genetic causes of congenital microcephaly, there has been a ...

Objective Ultrasound (US) has been proposed as a potential tool for assessing skin fibrosis in systemic sclerosis (SSc). However, a large‐scale comparison of US‐based assessment with histological markers of skin fibrosis has not been reported. We evaluated the US‐based skin assessments for their face validity (differentiation between involved SSc and ...

Ska1 is a kinetochore-localised protein that couples kinetochore movement to microtubule (MT) depolymerisation. Here Thomas et al. show that the MT +TIP binding protein EB1 recruits Ska1 to the MT-kinetochore interface and stabilises the interaction ...

Kinetochore clustering, frequently observed in yeasts, plays a key role in genome organization and chromosome segregation. In the absence of the metaphase plate arrangement, kinetochore clustering in yeast species is believed to facilitate timely ...

An assay for de novo kinetochore assembly reveals a key role for the CENP-T pathway in budding yeast
Chromosome segregation depends on the kinetochore, the machine that establishes force-bearing attachments between DNA and spindle microtubules. Kinetochores are formed every cell cycle via a highly regulated process that requires coordinated assembly of ...

DNA content of a functioning chicken kinetochore [PDF]
© The Author(s) 2014. In order to understand the three-dimensional structure of the functional kinetochore in vertebrates, we require a complete list and stoichiometry for the protein components of the kinetochore, which can be provided by genetic and ...
