Synergistic stabilization of microtubules by BUB-1, HCP-1, and CLS-2 controls microtubule pausing and meiotic spindle assembly

Nicolas Macaisne et al.

Summary: During cell division, the microtubule-based spindle plays a crucial role in chromosome segregation. The interaction between spindle microtubules and kinetochores is essential for the proper alignment and segregation of chromosomes. This study focuses on a kinetochore module called the BHC module, which consists of BUB-1, HCP-1/2, and CLS-2, and shows that it stabilizes microtubules, promoting spindle formation and accurate chromosome segregation.

Cecilia S. Blengini et al.

Summary: This article discusses the basic mechanisms of spindle formation during meiotic maturation, focusing on studies in mice and humans. It also explores various factors that may influence spindle formation and stability, as well as the potential impact of assisted reproductive technologies on spindles and subsequent embryo development.

Non-centrosomal microtubules at kinetochores promote rapid chromosome biorientation during mitosis in human cells

Fioranna Renda et al.

Summary: The proper separation of chromosomes during mitosis relies on load-bearing connections between sister kinetochores and opposite spindle poles via microtubule bundles. This study challenges the current models of spindle assembly by showing that most amphitelic attachments form synchronously at a specific stage and within a defined domain of the spindle. Structural and computational analyses suggest that interactions between kinetochores and microtubule bundles are mediated by noncentrosomal short microtubules.

Evolution of holocentric chromosomes: Drivers, diversity, and deterrents

Aruni P. Senaratne et al.

Summary: This article reviews the current state of research on holocentromeres and focuses on evolutionary considerations. It provides a historical perspective on the discovery of holocentric chromosomes and discusses proposed models and drivers for the transition from monocentric to holocentric chromosomes. The description of holocentric chromosomes in various eukaryotic groups is reviewed, with a specific focus on a recently characterized type of holocentromere organization in insects. The article also proposes reasons for the relatively infrequent occurrence of the holocentric trait across eukaryotes.

Cytoskeletal form and function in mammalian oocytes and zygotes

Sam Dunkley et al.

Summary: The actin and microtubule cytoskeletons in mammalian oocytes and zygotes have distinct forms at various subcellular locations, allowing for different functions within the same cell. Recent discoveries, aided by tools such as light-sensitive microscopy assays, have shed light on the form and function of these cytoskeletons in female reproductive cell biology. These findings include unexpected involvement of F-actin in oocyte chromosome segregation, oocyte-specific spindle self-organization modes, and the existence of nuclear actin polymers with emerging functions. Functional actin-microtubule interactions have also been identified as crucial for mammalian embryo development. Additionally, age-related changes in chromosome structure and dynamics that increase the risk of aneuploidy in mammalian eggs have been uncovered.

Aneuploidy in human eggs: contributions of the meiotic spindle

Christopher Thomas et al.

Summary: This article summarizes the reasons for aneuploidy in human eggs, mainly due to errors in chromosome segregation and defects in spindle organization. As women age, changes in chromosome and kinetochore architecture further increase the levels of aneuploidy.

An expanded auxin-inducible degron toolkit for Caenorhabditis elegans

Guinevere E. Ashley et al.

Summary: This study presents a toolkit for enhancing the application of the AID system in Caenorhabditis elegans, including tissue-specific and pan-somatic TIR1-expressing strains, as well as plasmids for constructing repair templates for generating fluorescent protein::AID fusions. These reagents will complement existing TIR1 strains and facilitate rapid and high-throughput tagging of genes with fluorescent protein::AID.

From the cytoskeleton to the nucleus: An integrated view on early spindle assembly

T. Ferreira Luisa et al.

Summary: Accurate chromosome segregation during mitosis requires a complete restructuring of cellular organization, including the remodeling of microtubules and actin cytoskeleton. These cytoplasmic events must be coordinated with mitotic chromosome condensation and nuclear envelope permeabilization to ensure mitotic timing and fidelity. Recent progress has been made in understanding the regulatory biochemical and mechanical pathways involved in these processes.

Microtubule reorganization during female meiosis in C. elegans

Ina Lantzsch et al.

Summary: Female meiotic spindles undergo significant morphological changes from metaphase to anaphase, with an increase in microtubule numbers, decrease in average length, and significant changes in microtubule lengths near the chromosome surface. Microtubule turnover is the major driver of spindle rearrangements, with a minor fraction of microtubules being severed in metaphase, mainly those in close contact with chromosomes. The mechanisms of microtubule severing in this transition appear to be dependent on katanin.
