Chromosome Segregation: Disarming the Protector
One of the key features of meiosis is that shugoshin in complex with protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) protects centromeric cohesin during meiosis I, but not during meiosis II. A new model suggests that a PP2A inhibitor mediates deprotection of centromeric cohesin during meiosis II.
متن کاملDisarming the Bid Sniper
Bid sniping is the most common strategy used in online auctions whereby the bidder places a bid in the closing seconds in order to win the auction. This denies other bidders the time to react and suppresses the final price. While bid sniping is beneficial to the winner, it disadvantages other bidders and the seller does not get the full amount of revenue s/he might otherwise have received in a ...
متن کاملChromosome Segregation: Reconstituting the Kinetochore
Faithful chromosome segregation is accomplished by attachment of chromosomes to spindle microtubules using the kinetochore. In a major step forward in understanding the functional and structural complexity of kinetochores, a 21-subunit human centromere - kinetochore complex has been reconstituted entirely from purified components, recreating the connection between DNA and microtubule.
متن کاملThe Basics of Chromosome Segregation
During cell division, chromosomes carrying thousands of genes are correctly transmitted to daughter cells via a motile apparatus named the mitotic spindle (a schematic outline of the cell (division) cycle is shown in Fig. 2.1). In postreplicative (post S phase) cells, chromosomes comprise duplicated sister chromatids. In the cell cycle stage called mitotic metaphase, all sister chromatid pairs ...
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...
