Mitosis

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Communication between Cyclin-dependent kinase Cdc2 and the Wis1-Spc1 MAPK pathway determines mitotic timing in Schizosaccharomyces pombe
    Agamani Ghosal, Priyanka Sarkar, Geetanjali Sundaram
    Biology Open 2020 9: bio053322 doi: 10.1242/bio.053322 Published 21 July 2020

    Summary: Modulation of Cdc2 activity can change the extent of Spc1 activation and preserve mitotic fidelity in Schizosaccharomyces pombe cells.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Effectors of the spindle assembly checkpoint are confined within the nucleus of Saccharomyces cerevisiae
    Lydia R. Heasley, Jennifer G. DeLuca, Steven M. Markus
    Biology Open 2019 8: bio037424 doi: 10.1242/bio.037424 Published 12 June 2019

    Summary: The effectors of the spindle assembly checkpoint are confined with the nuclear compartment of budding yeast, and cannot exchange between nuclei in a binucleate zygote.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Human asparagine synthetase associates with the mitotic spindle
    Chalongrat Noree, Elena Monfort, Vorasuk Shotelersuk
    Biology Open 2018 7: bio038307 doi: 10.1242/bio.038307 Published 14 December 2018

    Summary: While yeast Asn1p/ASN2p forms cytoplasmic filaments in response to nutrient limitation, hASNS is associated with centrosomes and mitotic spindles in actively dividing cells, suggesting its additional role in cell division.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Phosphatase-regulated recruitment of the spindle- and kinetochore-associated (Ska) complex to kinetochores
    Sushama Sivakumar, Gary J. Gorbsky
    Biology Open 2017 6: 1672-1679; doi: 10.1242/bio.026930

    Summary: Feedback between protein phosphatases and the spindle- and kinetochore-associated (Ska) complex regulates chromosome movement and the metaphase-to-anaphase cell cycle transition. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper as part of the supplementary information.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Fission yeast neddylation ligase Dcn1 facilitates cohesin cleavage and chromosome segregation at anaphase
    Lan Lin, Li Chen, Phong T. Tran
    Biology Open 2017 6: 844-849; doi: 10.1242/bio.021238

    Summary: The fission yeast neddylation ligase Dcn1 plays a role in chromosome segregation. dcn1-deletion results in activation of the Mad2-dependent spindle assembly checkpoint, and lagging chromosomes at anaphase.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Cross-linking mass spectrometry identifies new interfaces of Augmin required to localise the γ-tubulin ring complex to the mitotic spindle
    Jack W. C. Chen, Zhuo A. Chen, Kacper B. Rogala, Jeremy Metz, Charlotte M. Deane, Juri Rappsilber, James G. Wakefield
    Biology Open 2017 6: 654-663; doi: 10.1242/bio.022905

    Summary: A map of subunit positional restrictions in Drosophila Augmin shows that Dgt3, Dgt5 and Dgt6 are all required to localise gamma-TuRC to mitotic spindles.

  • METHODS & TECHNIQUES
    Quantitative microscopy uncovers ploidy changes during mitosis in live Drosophila embryos and their effect on nuclear size
    Wee Choo Puah, Rambabu Chinta, Martin Wasser
    Biology Open 2017 6: 390-401; doi: 10.1242/bio.022079

    Summary: A new 3D time-lapse microscopy image analysis pipeline consisting of nuclear segmentation, tracking, annotation and quantification revealed karyotype changes in Drosophila embryos.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    A novel mutation in the N-terminal domain of Drosophila BubR1 affects the spindle assembly checkpoint function of BubR1
    Marie Duranteau, Jean-Jacques Montagne, Zohra Rahmani
    Biology Open 2016 5: 1674-1679; doi: 10.1242/bio.021196

    Summary: We have identified a novel short motif sequence in the Drosophila BubR1 protein which when mutated affects the amount of Cdc20 recruited to the kinetochores and leads to an abrogation of the SAC.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    The Drosophila Pericentrin-like-protein (PLP) cooperates with Cnn to maintain the integrity of the outer PCM
    Jennifer H. Richens, Teresa P. Barros, Eliana P. Lucas, Nina Peel, David Miguel Susano Pinto, Alan Wainman, Jordan W. Raff
    Biology Open 2015 4: 1052-1061; doi: 10.1242/bio.012914
  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    A proteomic study of mitotic phase-specific interactors of EB1 reveals a role for SXIP-mediated protein interactions in anaphase onset
    Naoka Tamura, Judith E. Simon, Arnab Nayak, Rajesh Shenoy, Noriko Hiroi, Viviane Boilot, Akira Funahashi, Viji M. Draviam
    Biology Open 2015 4: 155-169; doi: 10.1242/bio.201410413
