Molecular architecture of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae kinetochore
Abstract
dc:description.abstract(cont.) checkpoint proteins Bub lp and Bub3p are recruited to the kinetochore as part of the normal cell cycle in budding yeast, whereas Madlp and Mad2p are recruited only in response to damage to the CEN-kinetochore-MT connection. Analysis of specific S. cerevisiae kinetochore mutants indicates that attachment status is the signal recognized by the spindle checkpoint to allow the metaphase-to-anaphase transition to occur.
