Mad3 KEN boxes mediate both Cdc20 and Mad3 turnover, and are critical for the spindle checkpoint. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
Mitotic progression is controlled by proteolytic destruction of securin and cyclin. The mitotic E3 ubiquitin ligase, known as the anaphase promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C), in partnership with its activators Cdc20p and Cdh1p, targets these proteins

Spindle Architectural Features Must Be Considered Along With Cell Size to Explain the Timing of Mitotic Checkpoint Silencing

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
Mitosis proceeds through a defined series of events that is largely conserved, but the amount of time needed for their completion can vary in different cells and organisms.

The spindle checkpoint’s on-off switch [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2014
![Figure][1] Mad1 (green) localizes to the kinetochores of control cells treated with nocodazole (left) but is absent from the kinetochores of cells that lack both CENP-I and Aurora B activity (right).

Spindle assembly checkpoint, aneuploidy and tumorigenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2009
Faithfully distributing chromosomes into two daughter cells in mitosis is essential for the maintenance of the integrity of the genome genome. The fidelity is achieved through a number of cellular processes among which is the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), an elaborate molecular pathway that monitors the attachment of microtubules to kinetochores ...

The Hypoxia‐Associated High‐Risk Cell Subpopulation Distinctly Enhances the Progression of Glioma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study suggests the potential roles of a novel hypoxia‐associated CDC20+KIF20A+PTTG1+ cell subpopulation in glioma progression. This high‐risk glioma cell subpopulation is therapeutically vulnerable to glioma progression and may play important roles in glioma standard‐of‐care therapeutic resistance.

Identification and Biological Evaluation of a Novel CLK4 Inhibitor Targeting Alternative Splicing in Pancreatic Cancer Using Structure‐Based Virtual Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy with limited treatment options. CLK4 regulates alternative splicing, contributing to cancer progression. This study establishes a computational model to identify CLK4 inhibitors, leading to compound 150441 (IC50: 21.4 nm).

Precocious centriole disengagement and centrosome fragmentation induced by mitotic delay

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The spindle assembly checkpoint delays mitotic progression until sister chromatids are bi-oriented. Here the authors show that moderate delays in mitotic progression induce centrosome fragmentation and centriole disengagement and that spindle bipolarity ...

Loss of CHFR in Human Mammary Epithelial Cells Causes Genomic Instability by Disrupting the Mitotic Spindle Assembly Checkpoint

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2008
CHFR is an E3 ubiquitin ligase and an early mitotic checkpoint protein implicated in many cancers and in the maintenance of genomic stability. To analyze the role of CHFR in genomic stability, by siRNA, we decreased its expression in genomically stable ...

A novel role for the GTPase-activating protein Bud2 in the spindle position checkpoint. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The spindle position checkpoint (SPC) ensures correct mitotic spindle position before allowing mitotic exit in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. In a candidate screen for checkpoint genes, we identified bud2Δ as deficient for the SPC. Bud2 is a

CDK5RAP2 is required for spindle checkpoint function [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2009
The combination of paclitaxel and doxorubicin is among the most successful chemotherapy regimens in cancer treatment. CDK5RAP2, when mutated, causes primary microcephaly. We show here that inhibition of CDK5RAP2 expression causes chromosome mis-segregation, fails to maintain the spindle checkpoint, and is associated with reduced expression of the ...
