A functional bipolar spindle is essential to segregate chromosomes correctly during mitosis. Across organisms and cell types, spindle architecture should be optimized to promote error-free divisions. However, it remains to be investigated whether mitotic

Background At the onset of mitosis, the centrosome expands and matures, acquiring enhanced activities for microtubule nucleation and assembly of a functional bipolar mitotic spindle.

Mitotic Spindle Assembly in Land Plants: Molecules and Mechanisms
In textbooks, the mitotic spindles of plants are often described separately from those of animals. How do they differ at the molecular and mechanistic levels?

Mechanisms and Molecules of the Mitotic Spindle [PDF]
In all eukaryotes, morphogenesis of the microtubule cytoskeleton into a bipolar spindle is required for the faithful transmission of the genome to the two daughter cells during division. This process is facilitated by the intrinsic polarity and dynamic properties of microtubules and involves many proteins that modulate microtubule organization and ...

Using microinjection approaches in Drosophila embryos, Araújo et al reveal that acute disruption of the ER at centrosome-proximal sites perturbs the architecture of the mitotic spindle, with a direct impact on nuclear positioning.

USP11 deubiquitinates RAE1 and plays a key role in bipolar spindle formation. [PDF]
Correct segregation of the mitotic chromosomes into daughter cells is a highly regulated process critical to safeguard genome stability. During M phase the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) ensures that all kinetochores are correctly attached before its ...

Protein Phosphatase 2A (PP2A) Regulates EG5 to Control Mitotic Progression
EG5 (KIF11) is a member of the kinesin-like protein family involved in centrosome separation and bipolar spindle formation. When a cell enters mitosis, CDK1 phosphorylates EG5 at Thr926 and promotes EG5 localization on the mitotic spindle which drives ...

Asymmetry of the budding yeast Tem1 GTPase at spindle poles is required for spindle positioning but not for mitotic exit. [PDF]
The asymmetrically dividing yeast S. cerevisiae assembles a bipolar spindle well after establishing the future site of cell division (i.e., the bud neck) and the division axis (i.e., the mother-bud axis).

Matrin3 regulates mitotic spindle dynamics by controlling alternative splicing of CDC14B
Summary: Matrin3 is an RNA-binding protein that regulates diverse RNA-related processes, including mRNA splicing. Although Matrin3 has been intensively studied in neurodegenerative diseases, its function in cancer remains unclear. Here, we report Matrin3-
