Modeling Dual Pathways for the Metazoan Spindle Assembly Checkpoint [PDF]
Using computational modelling, we investigate mechanisms of signal transduction focusing on the spindle assembly checkpoint where a single unattached kinetochore is able to signal to prevent cell cycle progression.

Synergistic Control of Kinetochore Protein Levels by Psh1 and Ubr2.
The accurate segregation of chromosomes during cell division is achieved by attachment of chromosomes to the mitotic spindle via the kinetochore, a large multi-protein complex that assembles on centromeres.

The kinetochore, a multi-protein complex assembled on centromeres, is essential to segregate chromosomes during cell division. Deficiencies in kinetochore function can lead to chromosomal instability and aneuploidy-a hallmark of cancer cells. Kinetochore

Budding yeast kinetochore proteins, Chl4 and Ctf19, are required to maintain SPB-centromere proximity during G1 and late anaphase. [PDF]
In the budding yeast, centromeres stay clustered near the spindle pole bodies (SPBs) through most of the cell cycle. This SPB-centromere proximity requires microtubules and functional kinetochores, which are protein complexes formed on the centromeres ...

The COMA complex interacts with Cse4 and positions Sli15/Ipl1 at the budding yeast inner kinetochore
Kinetochores are macromolecular protein complexes at centromeres that ensure accurate chromosome segregation by attaching chromosomes to spindle microtubules and integrating safeguard mechanisms.

Summary: This protocol measures the 3D Euclidean distance (Δ3D) between two/three fluorescently labeled kinetochore components in fixed samples using Kinetochore Delta software (KiDv1.0.1, MATLAB based).

HIM-10 is required for kinetochore structure and function on Caenorhabditis elegans holocentric chromosomes. [PDF]
Macromolecular structures called kinetochores attach and move chromosomes within the spindle during chromosome segregation. Using electron microscopy, we identified a structure on the holocentric mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of Caenorhabditis elegans ...

Spatiotemporal dynamics of Spc105 regulates the assembly of the Drosophila kinetochore [PDF]
The formation of kinetochores shortly before each cell division is a prerequisite for proper chromosome segregation. The synchronous mitoses of Drosophila syncytial embryos have provided an ideal in vivo system to follow kinetochore assembly kinetics and

Targeting the trypanosome kinetochore with CLK1 protein kinase inhibitors
The kinetochore is a macromolecular structure that assembles on the centromeres of chromosomes and provides the major attachment point for spindle microtubules during mitosis.

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]
Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation. Kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.
