• Human cancer cells are usually seen as a changes in the amount or organization of DNA because of mistakes in mitosis, causing chromosome instability and aneuploidy. (survivinpathway.com)
  • Here, we challenge this view and show that HPV-18 E2 over-activates the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint (SAC) and induces DNA breaks in mitosis followed by aneuploidy. (docksci.com)
  • MAD2L1 is a component of the mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint that prevents the onset of anaphase until all chromosomes are properly aligned at the metaphase plate. (wikipedia.org)
  • It also directly binds to BubR1, a kinetochore-associated kinase implicated in the mitotic checkpoint, the major cell cycle control pathway in which unattached kinetochores prevent anaphase onset. (rupress.org)
  • This phenotype is associated with interaction of E2 with the Mitotic Checkpoint Complex (MCC) proteins Cdc20, MAD2 and BUBR1. (docksci.com)
  • Unattached or tensionless kinetochores activate the checkpoint and enhance the production of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) consisting of BubR1, Bub3, Mad2, and Cdc20. (elsevierpure.com)
  • Here we identify two critical motifs within BubR1M that contribute to Cdc20 binding and anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome inhibition: a destruction box (D box) and a phenylalanine-containing motif termed the Phe box.ABubR1 mutant lacking these motifs is defective in MCC maintenance in mitotic human cells but is capable of supporting spindle-checkpoint function.

  • The spindle assembly checkpoint promotes chromosome bi-orientation: A novel Mad1 role in chromosome alignment. (docksci.com)
  • Treatment of M-phase extracts with a mutant cyclin B1-cdk1AF complex, refractory to inhibition by phosphorylation, impaired binding of the Anaphase Promoting Complex/Cyclosome (APC/C) to its co-activator Cdc20 and altered M-phase exit. (ox.ac.uk)
  • Using a computational model based on multi-step ubiquitination, we then show how changes in the interaction between a single substrate and APC/C Cdc20 can alter the timing of degradation onset relative to APC/C Cdc20 activation, while ensuring a fast degradation rate. (biomedcentral.com)
  • The activator Cdc20 is then replaced by a second activator, Cdh1, and APC/C Cdh1 promotes complete degradation of M cyclin, followed by polo-like kinase 1, Aurora A, and other substrates, to complete mitosis and cytokinesis and drive progression into G1 [ 1 , 2 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
  • This intricate phase, located within the larger mechanism of mitosis, is responsible for acting as a guarantor that each nascent cell obtains A precise set of chromosomes. (biologyideas.com)
  • Furthermore, we delve into the significant role of the mitotic spindle, the complex that serves as the catalyst for moving chromosomes during anaphase, and observe the consequential fallout in case of anaphase errors, putting emphasis on common mishaps like non-disjunction which could potentially trigger chromosomal disorders including cancer and Down syndrome. (biologyideas.com)
  • By definition, anaphase is a phase of mitosis wherein the replicated chromosomes, known as sister chromatids, separate from one another and move toward opposite poles of the cell. (biologyideas.com)
  • Both in mitosis and meiosis, anaphase ensures each newly formed cell has a complete and accurate set of chromosomes, thus safeguarding the genetic integrity of an organism. (biologyideas.com)
  • Anaphase marks a pivotal stage in mitosis, crucially ensuring each resulting daughter cell inherits an accurate set of chromosomes. (biologyideas.com)
  • The pre-replication complex (pre-RC) assembly or the DNA replication licensing is the first step in DNA replication initiation, characterized by the sequential recruitment of ORCs, Cdc6, Cdt1 and MCMs to the DNA replication origins to form the pre-RC at the end of mitosis ( Bell and Dutta 2002 ). (intechopen.com)
  • In most animals the oocyte is arrested in meiosis, and fertilization leads to initiation of mitosis as the oocyte nucleus completes meiosis and fuses with the haploid sperm nucleus. (elifesciences.org)
  • Regulation of AURKA activity by the cell is critically dependent on destruction mediated by the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/CFZR1) during mitotic exit and G1 phase and requires an atypical N-terminal degron in AURKA called the "A-box" in addition to a reported canonical D-box degron in the C-terminus. (bvsalud.org)
  • the cyclin B-cdk 1 complex) is activated at M-phase onset by removal of inhibitory phosphorylation of cdk1 at thr-14 and tyr-15. (ox.ac.uk)
  • These changes are orchestrated by a small number of master regulators, including the cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks) and the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C). Each Cdk or APC/C isoform has a large number of substrates, and the substrates of each isoform are modified in a specific order that leads to sequential substrate activation or inactivation. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Our exploration will range from a broad overview to an intricate, detailed examination of the series of events that transpire during anaphase, commencing with the separation of sister chromatids to their migration towards opposite cell poles. (biologyideas.com)
  • PIP4KIIγ accumulates at the spindle pole before anaphase, and is required for the assembly of functional bipolar spindles. (biomedcentral.com)
  • 3 during the S phase and prematurely exited the cell cycle, triggering the onset of the endocycle. (ugent.be)
  • Role for non-proteolytic control of M-phase-promoting factor activity at M-phase exit. (ox.ac.uk)
  • The generation of a zygote through fertilization marks the onset of development for the offspring, and requires the proper completion of sperm and oocyte development in the respective parents. (elifesciences.org)
  • Development through mitosis depends upon three major regulatory systems, each involving several serine/threonine kinases, referred to as mitotic kinases. (survivinpathway.com)
  • Anaphase holds vast importance in the division of cells and ensuring genetic continuity. (biologyideas.com)
  • Our current results imply that PIP4KIIγ may restrain MT depolymerization at the spindle pole through attenuating PLK1-mediated activation of MCAK before anaphase onset. (biomedcentral.com)
  • Within this review, we summarize the functions that all of the Aurora kinases has in cancer biology and mitosis, and discuss the binding modes of Aurora A kinase inhibitors, the spot elements in the binding sites and the fortunate inhibitor components. (survivinpathway.com)
