摘要
The kinetochore attaches the centromeric region of chromosomes to spindle microtubules, allowing equatorial chromosome segregation during mitosis. Proteomic analyses suggest that the kinetochore is a supramolecular complex containing more than 65 proteins that surpasses the size of a ribosome. From within this complex web, stable protein sub-complexes have been extracted, revealing the building blocks for kinetochore assembly.
