Contributions of microtubule dynamic instability and rotational diffusion to kinetochore capture
Robert Blackwell, Oliver Sweezy-Schindler, Christopher Edelmaier +8
Microtubule dynamic instability allows search and capture of kinetochores during spindle formation, an important process for accurate chromosome segregation during cell division. R…

Kinesin-8 effects on mitotic microtubule dynamics contribute to spindle function in fission yeast
Zachary Gergely, Ammon Crapo, Loren E. Hough +2
Kinesin-8 motor proteins destabilize microtubules. Their absence during cell division is associated with disorganized mitotic chromosome movements and chromosome loss. Despite rece…
