peggyscshu/Mitosis-phase-analysis:
A cell cycle occurs as a cell divides. The somatic cell leaves interphase, undergoes mitosis and eventually gives out two daughter cells. Mitosis is composed by a series of events including prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.

Phosphorylation by Cdk1 induces Plk1-mediated vimentin phosphorylation during mitosis [PDF]
Several kinases phosphorylate vimentin, the most common intermediate filament protein, in mitosis. Aurora-B and Rho-kinase regulate vimentin filament separation through the cleavage furrow-specific vimentin phosphorylation.

Chromosome condensation in mitosis and meiosis of rye (Secale cereale L.) [PDF]
Structural investigation and morphometry of meiotic chromosomes by scanning electron microscopy (in comparison to light microscopy) of all stages of condensation of meiosis I + II show remarkable differences during chromosome condensation in mitosis and ...

Astrin is required for the maintenance of sister chromatid cohesion and centrosome integrity [PDF]
Faithful chromosome segregation in mitosis requires the formation of a bipolar mitotic spindle with stably attached chromosomes. Once all of the chromosomes are aligned, the connection between the sister chromatids is severed by the cysteine protease ...

Dual pathway spindle assembly increases both the speed and the fidelity of mitosis [PDF]
Roughly half of all animal somatic cell spindles assemble by the classical prophase pathway, in which the centrosomes separate ahead of nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD).

Fission yeast bub1 is a mitotic centromere protein essential for the spindle checkpoint and the preservation of correct ploidy through mitosis [PDF]
The spindle checkpoint ensures proper chromosome segregation by delaying anaphase until all chromosomes are correctly attached to the mitotic spindle.

Exotic mitotic mechanisms [PDF]
The emergence of eukaryotes around two billion years ago provided new challenges for the chromosome segregation machineries: the physical separation of multiple large and linear chromosomes from the microtubule-organizing centres by the nuclear envelope.

Functional characterization of PICH, a DNA-dependent ATPase required for faithful chromosome segregation during mitosis [PDF]
PICH (Plk1-interacting checkpoint helicase), a DNA-dependent ATPase, was identified as a binding partner and substrate of Plk1. During mitosis, PICH localizes to the centromere/KTs of condensed mitotic chromosomes and to ultra-fine DNA bridges (UFBs ...

Bub1 autophosphorylation feeds back to regulate kinetochore docking and promote localized substrate phosphorylation [PDF]
During mitosis, Bub1 kinase phosphorylates histone H2A-T120 to promote centromere sister chromatid cohesion through recruitment of shugoshin (Sgo) proteins. The regulation and dynamics of H2A-T120 phosphorylation are poorly understood. Using quantitative

Sds22 regulates aurora B activity and microtubule-kinetochore interactions at mitosis [PDF]
We have studied Sds22, a conserved regulator of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) activity, and determined its role in modulating the activity of aurora B kinase and kinetochore-microtubule inter-actions.
