Forming chromosomes
What are the principal structural and biochemical events that drive chromosome formation as cells enter mitosis?
Lab Members involved
Coating chromosomes
How do nucleolar proteins and RNAs assemble the mitotic chromosome periphery compartment and is this important?
Lab Members involved
Segregating chromosomes
How is centromere chromatin assembled, organised and disassembled during mitosis on an endogenous vertebrate chromosome and during human artificial chromosome (HAC) formation?
Lab Members involved
Controlling the process
How do mitotic kinases, including Cdk1 and Aurora B in the Chromosomal Passenger Complex (CPC), regulate events during synchronous entry and exit from mitosis?
