Separase cleaves the kinetochore protein Meikin at the meiosis I/II transition
2021, Developmental CellCitation Excerpt :During anaphase I, cohesin on the chromosome arms is removed to allow homolog separation, whereas cohesin complexes at pericentromeric regions are critical for holding sister chromatids together and must be retained until anaphase II (Marston and Amon, 2004). Third, instead of binding to opposing spindle poles as they do in mitosis, the kinetochores of sister chromatids co-orient, fusing into a single microtubule-binding entity, to connect to microtubules from the same spindle pole during meiosis I (Chiang et al., 2010; Goldstein, 1981; Li and Dawe, 2009; Sarangapani et al., 2014). The meiosis-specific proteins and activities that contribute to protecting pericentromeric cohesin and promoting sister kinetochore co-orientation to enable this alternative division strategy remain important areas of investigation.
Repositioning of aurora b promoted by chiasmata ensures sister chromatid mono-orientation in meiosis i
2011, Developmental CellCitation Excerpt :Meiosis is a unique type of cell division that allows halving of the chromosome number (Page and Hawley, 2003). In meiosis I, the cohesin-dependent association of sister DNA at the core centromere causes close juxtaposition or fusion of sister kinetochores and biases them geometrically toward the same spindle pole (mono-orientation) (Goldstein, 1981; Li and Dawe, 2009; Sakuno et al., 2009). In fission yeast, this “kinetochore cohesion” is established depending on the meiotic kinetochore protein Moa1 as well as the meiotic cohesin complex including Rec8 (Sakuno et al., 2009; Yokobayashi and Watanabe, 2005).
