Congenital microcephaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The underlying etiologies of genetic congenital microcephaly are complex and multifactorial. Recently, with the exponential growth in the identification and characterization of novel genetic causes of congenital microcephaly, there has been a ...

Spindle assembly checkpoint silencing and beyond [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2016
The Spindle Assembly Checkpoint (SAC) prevents anaphase onset in the absence of kinetochore-microtubule attachment, ensuring that cells with unattached kinetochores do not proceed into anaphase.

Some assembly required: Redefining the mitotic checkpoint

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017
The spindle assembly checkpoint (also known as the spindle or mitotic checkpoint) is a surveillance system that ensures fidelity of chromosome segregation.

Running on a treadmill: dynamic inhibition of APC/C by the spindle checkpoint

open access: yesCell Division, 2007
During mitosis, the genome duplicated during S-phase is synchronously and accurately segregated to the two daughter cells. The spindle checkpoint prevents premature sister-chromatid separation and mitotic exit.

Kinase Signaling in the Spindle Checkpoint [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
The spindle checkpoint is a cell cycle surveillance system that ensures the fidelity of chromosome segregation. In mitosis, it elicits the "wait anaphase" signal to inhibit the anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome until all chromosomes achieve bipolar microtubule attachment and align at the metaphase plate. Because a single kinetochore unattached to

The coordination of centromere replication, spindle formation, and kinetochore-microtubule interaction in budding yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2008
The kinetochore is a protein complex that assembles on centromeric DNA to mediate chromosome-microtubule interaction. Most eukaryotic cells form the spindle and establish kinetochore-microtubule interaction during mitosis, but budding yeast cells finish ...

M2I-1 disrupts the in vivo interaction between CDC20 and MAD2 and increases the sensitivities of cancer cell lines to anti-mitotic drugs via MCL-1s [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Drugs such as taxanes, epothilones, and vinca alkaloids are widely used in the treatment of breast, ovarian, and lung cancers but come with major side effects such as neuropathy and loss of neutrophils and as single agents have a lack of ...

CENP-E as an Essential Component of the Mitotic Checkpoint In Vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 1956
Accurate chromatid separation is monitored by a checkpoint mechanism that delays anaphase onset until all centromeres are correctly attached to the mitotic spindle.

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.

Latrunculin A delays anaphase onset in fission yeast by disrupting an ase1-independent pathway controlling mitotic spindle stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
It has been proposed previously that latrunculin A, an inhibitor of actin polymerization, delays the onset of anaphase by causing spindle misorientation in fission yeast.
