Proteomic Dissection of the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint
Human cell division is a critical process that ensures the accurate transmission of the genetic material from one mother cell to two cells. The mitotic Spindle Assembly Checkpoint (SAC) ensures the fidelity of this process by responding to errors in microtubule‐kinetochore attachment and tension, and arresting the cells in prometaphase to allow time to

Fin1-PP1 Helps Clear Spindle Assembly Checkpoint Protein Bub1 from Kinetochores in Anaphase
Summary: The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) monitors chromosome attachment defects, and the assembly of SAC proteins at kinetochores is essential for its activation, but the SAC disassembly process remains unknown.

This study investigates threonine and tyrosine kinase (TTK) expression in pre‐ and post‐neoadjuvant chemotherapy breast cancer patients. TTK mRNA expression was elevated in breast cancer tissues, predicting reduced survival. Notably, TTK protein expression in neoadjuvant chemotherapy‐treated breast cancer patients was up‐regulated post‐therapy and ...

Spindle assembly checkpoint acquisition at the mid-blastula transition.
The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) maintains the fidelity of chromosome segregation during mitosis. Nonpathogenic cells lacking the SAC are typically only found in cleavage stage metazoan embryos, which do not acquire functional checkpoints until the ...

Hydrodynamic mechanism for stable spindle positioning in meiosis II oocytes [PDF]
Cytoplasmic streaming, the persistent flow of fluid inside a cell, induces intracellular transport, which plays a key role in fundamental biological processes. In meiosis II mouse oocytes (developing egg cells) awaiting fertilisation, the spindle, which is the protein structure responsible for dividing genetic material in a cell, must maintain its ...

Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an aggressive malignancy, highly resistant to current medical and surgical therapies, whose tumor cells characteristically show a high level of aneuploidy and genomic instability.

The Spindle-Assembly Checkpoint, Aneuploidy, and Gastrointestinal Cancer [PDF]
Genomic instability is a common occurrence in solid tumors, and it has long been conjectured that this process plays a causal role in cancer. The field of human molecular genetics has provided a means to test this hypothesis, fueled in part by the analysis of hereditary cancer-predisposition syndromes. Some of the first unequivocal support for the idea

Responding to chromosomal breakage during M-phase: insights from a cell-free system
DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) activate ATM and ATR dependent checkpoints that prevent the onset of mitosis. However, how cells react to DSBs occurring when they are already in mitosis is poorly understood.
