Kinetochores Use a Novel Mechanism for Coordinating the Dynamics of Individual ...
VandenBeldt, KJ; Barnard, RM; Hergert, PJ; Meng, X; Maiato, H; McEwen, BFChromosome alignment during mitosis is frequently accompanied by a dynamic switching between elongation and shortening of kinetochore fibers (K-fibers) that connect kinetochores and spindle poles [1, 2]. In higher eukaryotes, mature K-fibers consist of 10–30 kinetochore microtubules (kMTs) whose plus-ends are embedded in the kinetochore [1-3]. A critical and long-standing question is how the dynamics of individ...
