Calcium depletion destabilises kinetochore fibres by the removal of CENP-F from the kinetochore

Abstract The attachment of spindle fibres to the kinetochore is an important process that ensures successful completion of the cell division. The Ca2+ concentration increases during the mitotic phase and contributes microtubule stability. However, its role in the spindle organisation in mitotic cell...
