Trypanosome outer kinetochore proteins suggest conservation of chromosome segregation machinery across eukaryotes (2016)
Journal Article
D’Archivio, S., & Wickstead, B. (2017). Trypanosome outer kinetochore proteins suggest conservation of chromosome segregation machinery across eukaryotes. Journal of Cell Biology, 216(2), 379-391. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201608043

Kinetochores are multiprotein complexes that couple eukaryotic chromosomes to the mitotic spindle to ensure proper segregation. The model for kinetochore assembly is conserved between humans and yeast, and homologues of several components are widely...
