Cellular Mitotic Machinery

Molecular classification
Protein complex, Microtubule-based structure, Motor proteins, Kinases
01

Overview

The cellular mitotic machinery is a complex system of molecular structures and proteins that orchestrate the accurate segregation of chromosomes during cell division (mitosis). The centerpiece of this machinery is the mitotic spindle, a dynamic, microtubule-based structure responsible for capturing, aligning, and separating duplicated chromosomes into two daughter cells. Errors in the mitotic machinery can lead to genetic instability and aneuploidy, which are hallmarks of many cancers, making it an important target for anti-cancer therapeutics.
