Chromosome segregation depends on proper orientation of sister kinetochores. The protein Csm1 is required for mono-orientation of sister kinetochores at meiosis I in budding yeast. Surprisingly, its homologue in fission yeast appears instead of clamp micro-tubule binding sites together on single mitotic kinetochores so that they all face one spindle pole.
染色体分离依赖于姐妹动粒的正确定向。在芽殖酵母减数分裂I中,蛋白质Csm1是姐妹动粒单定向所必需的。令人惊讶的是,它在裂殖酵母中的同源物却出现在单个有丝分裂动粒上,与夹微管结合位点一起,使它们都朝向一个纺锤极。
