Journal ArticleDOI
Hierarchical assembly of the budding yeast kinetochore from multiple subcomplexes
TL;DR: It is found that yeast kinetochores resemble transcriptional enhancers in being composed of at least 17 discrete subcomplexes that assemble on DNA to form a very large structure with a mass in excess of 5 MD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenetic and structural analysis of centromeric DNA and kinetochore proteins.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that organisms with CENs resembling those in S. cerevisiae are very closely related and that all contain a set of 11 kinetochore proteins not found in organisms with complex CEN.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure, Function, and Regulation of Budding Yeast Kinetochores
TL;DR: This review focuses on the simplest eukaryotic centromeres and kinetochores, those found in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prime movers: the mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins
TL;DR: Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation and kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.
Journal ArticleDOI
Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sin3p facilitates DNA double-strand break repair
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Sin3p and Rpd3p, components of one of the predominant histone deacetylase complexes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are required for efficient nonhomologous end joining.
