Insights into the kinetochore
Abstract
The Ndc80 complex is a core component of the kinetochore, which links chromosomes to microtubules. Recently, Ciferri et al. (2008) published an atomic-level structure of the complex with implications for kinetochore architecture and for the generation and control of chromosome movements during mitosis.
