Establishment of the vertebrate kinetochores [PDF]

Chromosome Research, 2012
The centromere is essential for accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis and meiosis to achieve transmission of genetic information to daughter cells. To facilitate accurate chromosome segregation, the centromere serves several specific functions, including microtubule binding, spindle-checkpoint control, and sister chromatid cohesion.

Association of Elevated Platelets and C‐Reactive Protein With Severe Disease and Poor Survival in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) levels in systemic sclerosis (SSc) have been linked with severe disease and worse survival, but the role of platelet levels remains unclear. This study examined whether elevated platelet levels, CRP levels, or both are associated with disease severity, progression, and survival in SSc.

Microvascular damage is associated with carotid wall structural changes in Systemic Sclerosis: a capillaroscopy and ultrasound‐based observational study

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Introduction Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by cardiovascular risk excess not fully explained by traditional factors. Whether the severity of microvascular damage correlates with structural subclinical atherosclerosis remains unclear. We investigated the relationship between nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities and carotid ...

The roles of kinetochore of micronucleus in mitosis of HeLa cells: a live cell imaging study

Cancer Cell International, 2019
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.

Microneedle manipulation of the mammalian spindle reveals specialized, short-lived reinforcement near chromosomes

eLife, 2020
The spindle generates force to segregate chromosomes at cell division. In mammalian cells, kinetochore-fibers connect chromosomes to the spindle. The dynamic spindle anchors kinetochore-fibers in space and time to move chromosomes.

Borealin : a novel chromosomal passenger required for stability of the bipolar mitotic spindle [PDF]

, 2004
The chromosomal passenger complex of Aurora B kinase, INCENP, and Survivin has essential regulatory roles at centromeres and the central spindle in mitosis. Here, we describe Borealin, a novel member of the complex.

Towards understanding of unconventional kinetochores in kinetoplastids [PDF]

, 2021
The kinetochore is the macromolecular protein machinery that drives chromosome segregation by interacting with spindle microtubules. Kinetoplastids, an evolutionarily divergent group of eukaryotes, possess a unique set of kinetochore proteins (KKT1—20 ...

Calcineurin‐Dependent Stress Adaptation Enables Caspofungin Heteroresistance Leading to Stable Resistance in Candida Glabrata

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Caspofungin heteroresistance is prevalent in clinical Candida glabrata isolates and depends on calcineurin‐mediated stress adaptation. This transient phenotype serves as a reservoir for resistance evolution, enabling the emergence of stable resistant descendants under prolonged drug pressure.

Ordered Kinetochore Assembly in the Human-Pathogenic Basidiomycetous Yeast Cryptococcus neoformans

mBio, 2013
Kinetochores facilitate interaction between chromosomes and the spindle apparatus. The formation of a metazoan trilayered kinetochore is an ordered event in which inner, middle, and outer layers assemble during disassembly of the nuclear envelope during ...

The path of DNA in the kinetochore [PDF]

Current Biology, 2006
The kinetochore is the protein-DNA complex at eukaryotic centromeres that functions as the attachment site for spindle microtubules. In budding yeast, the centromere spans 120 bp, there is a single microtubule per kinetochore, and the entire spindle is composed of 16 kinetochore microtubules plus four interpolar microtubules from each pole.
