TRIP13PCH-2 promotes Mad2 localization to unattached kinetochores in the spindle checkpoint response. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The spindle checkpoint acts during cell division to prevent aneuploidy, a hallmark of cancer. During checkpoint activation, Mad1 recruits Mad2 to kinetochores to generate a signal that delays anaphase onset.

The chromosomal passenger complex and the spindle assembly checkpoint: kinetochore-microtubule error correction and beyond

open access: yesCell Division, 2008
During mitosis, correct bipolar chromosome attachment to the mitotic spindle is an essential prerequisite for the equal segregation of chromosomes. The spindle assembly checkpoint can prevent chromosome segregation as long as not all chromosome pairs ...

Checkpoint proteins come under scrutiny [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Details are emerging of the interactions between the kinetochore and various spindle checkpoint proteins that ensure that sister chromatids are equally divided between daughter cells during cell ...

The Spindle Assembly Checkpoint Is Required for Hematopoietic Progenitor Cell Engraftment

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: The spindle assembly checkpoint plays a pivotal role in preventing aneuploidy and transformation. Many studies demonstrate impairment of this checkpoint in cancer cells.

Spindle assembly checkpoint protein dynamics reveal conserved and unsuspected roles in plant cell division. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: In eukaryotes, the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) ensures that chromosomes undergoing mitosis do not segregate until they are properly attached to the microtubules of the spindle.

Mammalian kinetochores count attached microtubules in a sensitive and switch-like manner. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) prevents anaphase until all kinetochores attach to the spindle. Each mammalian kinetochore binds many microtubules, but how many attached microtubules are required to turn off the checkpoint, and how the kinetochore ...

Conformational dynamics of the Hop1 HORMA domain reveal a common mechanism with the spindle checkpoint protein Mad2. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The HORMA domain is a highly conserved protein-protein interaction module found in eukaryotic signaling proteins including the spindle assembly checkpoint protein Mad2 and the meiotic HORMAD proteins.

Sustained spindle-assembly checkpoint response requires de novo transcription and translation of cyclin B1.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
Microtubule-targeting drugs induce mitotic delay at pro-metaphase by preventing the spindle assembly checkpoint to be satisfied. However, especially after prolonged treatments, cells can escape this arrest in a process called mitotic slippage.

Phosphorylation of Sli15 by Ipl1 is important for proper CPC localization and chromosome stability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) is a key regulator of eukaryotic cell division, consisting of the protein kinase Aurora B/Ipl1 in association with its activator (INCENP/Sli15) and two additional proteins (Survivin/Bir1 and Borealin/Nbl1). Here we

CENP-F stabilizes kinetochore-microtubule attachments and limits dynein stripping of corona cargoes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Accurate chromosome segregation demands efficient capture of microtubules by kinetochores and their conversion to stable bioriented attachments that can congress and then segregate chromosomes.
