The importance of microtubule-dependent tension in accurate chromosome segregation

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: January and colleagues from the University of Edinburgh, United Kingdom have published the Article: The importance of microtubule-dependent tension in accurate chromosome segregation, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors provide a brief overview of the understanding of the forces in the bipolar mitotic spindle and how those forces allow dynamic microtubulekinetochore attachments to generate tension across sister chromatids.
  • future: More work is needed to understand how the tension status is transmitted to these downstream effectors.

SUMMARY

    When a dynamic microtubule becomes attached to, or captured, by . . .
