Meiotic cells escape prolonged spindle checkpoint activity through kinetochore silencing and slippage. [PDF]
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.

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.

CHMP4C: A novel regulator of the mitotic spindle checkpoint. [PDF]
The mitotic spindle checkpoint delays anaphase onset until all chromosomes have achieved stable kinetochore-microtubule attachments. Here, we discuss recent findings showing that CHMP4C, a component of the endosomal sorting complex required for transport

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.

Tethering sister centromeres to each other suggests the spindle checkpoint detects stretch within the kinetochore. [PDF]
The spindle checkpoint ensures that newly born cells receive one copy of each chromosome by preventing chromosomes from segregating until they are all correctly attached to the spindle.

Yeast Kinesin-5 Motor Protein CIN8 Promotes Accurate Chromosome Segregation
Accurate chromosome segregation depends on bipolar chromosome–microtubule attachment and tension generation on chromosomes. Incorrect chromosome attachment results in chromosome missegregation, which contributes to genome instability.

A sequential multi-target Mps1 phosphorylation cascade promotes spindle checkpoint signaling. [PDF]
The master spindle checkpoint kinase Mps1 senses kinetochore-microtubule attachment and promotes checkpoint signaling to ensure accurate chromosome segregation.

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.

Protein phosphatase 1 in association with Bud14 inhibits mitotic exit in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Mitotic exit in budding yeast is dependent on correct orientation of the mitotic spindle along the cell polarity axis. When accurate positioning of the spindle fails, a surveillance mechanism named the spindle position checkpoint (SPOC) prevents cells ...
