Chromosome Segregation: A Spatial Code to Correct Kinetochore–Microtubule Attachments
Erroneous kinetochore-microtubule interactions must be detected and corrected before a cell enters anaphase to prevent chromosome mis-segregation. Two new studies describe an Aurora A-mediated error correction mechanism based on the spatial position of a chromosome within the mitotic spindle.
متن کاملCoordination of Chromosome Segregation and Cell Division in Staphylococcus aureus
Productive bacterial cell division and survival of progeny requires tight coordination between chromosome segregation and cell division to ensure equal partitioning of DNA. Unlike rod-shaped bacteria that undergo division in one plane, the coccoid human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus divides in three successive orthogonal planes, which requires a different spatial control compared to rod-shaped...
متن کاملChromosome Segregation: Organizing Overlap at the Midzone
Sets of overlapping microtubules support the segregation of chromosomes by linking the poles of mitotic spindles. Recent work examines the effect of putting these linkages under pressure by the activation of dicentric chromosomes and sheds new light on the structural role of several well-known spindle midzone proteins.
متن کاملBacterial chromosome segregation.
Dividing cells have mechanisms to ensure that their genomes are faithfully segregated into daughter cells. In bacteria, the description of these mechanisms has been considerably improved in the recent years. This review focuses on the different aspects of bacterial chromosome segregation that can be understood thanks to the studies performed with model organisms: Escherichia coli, Bacillus subt...
متن کاملAffecting Nonexchange Chromosome Segregation
A new meiotic mutation, moremight (mzur) was identified by screening for new mutations that act as dominant enhancers of the dosage-sensitive Drosophila melanogaster female meiotic mutant, nod”? mwr is a recessive meiotic mutant, specifically impairing the segregation of nonexchange chromosomes. Cytological evidence suggests that the meitoic defect in mwr/mw females is in homologue recognition ...
