... of microtubules to the kinetochore, subsequent pulling of the 2 sister chromatids by the spindles towards opposite poles results in 2 completely separated chromatids. Besides more than 100 kinds of kinetochore proteins, several key proteins such as cohesin, separase, shugoshin, and condensin contribute...

... and is guaranteed by error prevention and correction mechanisms that ultimately certify the bipolar attachment of chromosomes to the mitotic spindle, the uniform distribution of forces amongst different chromosomes, and the simultaneity of sister-chromatid separation. The existence of a kinetochore-attachment...

.... It is transmitted in the genomic background of oat via a new centromere (and kinetochore), as shown by immunolocalization of the oat CENH3 protein. Despite normal transmission of the maize fragment in most progeny, neocentromeres appear to vary in size within the same tissue, as shown by fluorescent measurements...
