The mitotic spindle checkpoint [PDF]
Fantastic progress has been made in understanding the spindle checkpoint, the guardian of balanced chromosome segregation. However, several basic questions and many details remain to be worked out. In the meantime, the use of chimeric fluorescent proteins and ever better imaging technology has enhanced the stunning videos of mitosis made today ...

Spindle Checkpoint Regulators in Insulin Signaling [PDF]
The spindle checkpoint ensures accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis and guards against aneuploidy. Insulin signaling governs metabolic homeostasis and cell growth, and its dysregulation leads to metabolic disorders, such as diabetes.

Bub1-mediated adaptation of the spindle checkpoint. [PDF]
During cell division, the spindle checkpoint ensures accurate chromosome segregation by monitoring the kinetochore-microtubule interaction and delaying the onset of anaphase until each pair of sister chromosomes is properly attached to microtubules.

Monitoring spindle orientation: Spindle position checkpoint in charge [PDF]
Every cell division in budding yeast is inherently asymmetric and counts on the correct positioning of the mitotic spindle along the mother-daughter polarity axis for faithful chromosome segregation.

From spindle checkpoint to cancer [PDF]
Truncating and missense mutations in BUB1B, encoding the mitotic spindle checkpoint protein BUBR1, have been identified in individuals with mosaic variegated aneuploidy. This finding supports the idea that there is a genetic basis for aneuploidy in cancers.

Ubc1 turnover contributes to the spindle assembly checkpoint in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
The spindle assembly checkpoint protects the integrity of the genome by ensuring that chromosomes are properly attached to the mitotic spindle before they are segregated during anaphase.

To prevent chromosome mis-segregation, a surveillance mechanism known as the spindle checkpoint delays the cell cycle if kinetochores are not attached to spindle microtubules, allowing the cell additional time to correct improper attachments.

Phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis class N (PIGN) has been linked to the suppression of chromosomal instability. The spindle assembly checkpoint complex is responsible for proper chromosome segregation during mitosis to prevent chromosomal ...

Every mitosis, replicated chromosomes must be accurately segregated into each daughter cell. Pairs of sister chromatids attach to the bipolar mitotic spindle during prometaphase, they are aligned at metaphase, then sisters separate and are pulled to opposite poles during anaphase.

The Spindle Assembly Checkpoint [PDF]
During mitosis and meiosis, the spindle assembly checkpoint acts to maintain genome stability by delaying cell division until accurate chromosome segregation can be guaranteed. Accuracy requires that chromosomes become correctly attached to the microtubule spindle apparatus via their kinetochores.
