Ensemble-level organization of human kinetochores and evidence for distinct tension and attachment sensors

E Roscioli, TE Germanova, CA Smith, PA Embacher… - Cell reports, 2020 - cell.com
Kinetochores are multi-protein machines that form dynamic attachments to microtubules and
control chromosome segregation. High fidelity is ensured because kinetochores can monitor …

[HTML][HTML] CENP-F stabilizes kinetochore-microtubule attachments and limits dynein stripping of corona cargoes

P Auckland, E Roscioli, HLE Coker… - Journal of Cell Biology, 2020 - rupress.org
Accurate chromosome segregation demands efficient capture of microtubules by
kinetochores and their conversion to stable bioriented attachments that can congress and …

α-tubulin detyrosination fine-tunes kinetochore-microtubule attachments

H Girão, J Macário-Monteiro, AC Figueiredo… - Nature …, 2024 - nature.com
Post-translational cycles of α-tubulin detyrosination and tyrosination generate microtubule
diversity, the cellular functions of which remain largely unknown. Here we show that α …

Spindle-length-dependent HURP localization allows centrosomes to control kinetochore-fiber plus-end dynamics

D Dudka, C Castrogiovanni, N Liaudet, H Vassal… - Current Biology, 2019 - cell.com
During mitosis, centrosomes affect the length of kinetochore fibers (k-fibers) and the stability
of kinetochore-microtubule attachments, implying that they regulate k-fiber dynamics …

WDR62 localizes katanin at spindle poles to ensure synchronous chromosome segregation

A Guerreiro, F De Sousa, N Liaudet, D Ivanova… - Journal of Cell …, 2021 - rupress.org
Mutations in the WDR62 gene cause primary microcephaly, a pathological condition often
associated with defective cell division that results in severe brain developmental defects …

Centrosomes control kinetochore-fiber plus-end dynamics via HURP to ensure symmetric divisions

D Dudka, N Liaudet, H Vassal, P Meraldi - bioRxiv, 2019 - biorxiv.org
During mitosis centrosomes can affect the length of kinetochore-fibers (k-fibers) and the
stability of kinetochore-microtubule attachments, implying that they regulate k-fiber …
