Stable kinetochore-microtubule attachment requires loop-dependent Ndc80-Ndc80 binding
Open accessPreprint — published as 10.15252/embj.2022112504 · Paper page
Abstract
During cell division, kinetochores link chromosomes to spindle microtubules. The Ndc80 complex, a crucial microtubule binder, populates each kinetochore with dozens of copies. Whether adjacent Ndc80 complexes cooperate to promote microtubule binding remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that the Ndc80 loop, a short sequence identified across eukaryotes and predicted to interrupt the Ndc80 coiled-coil, promotes direct interactions between full-length Ndc80 complexes. Both in dividing cells and in a fully reconstituted system, these interactions are essential for the formation of force-resistant kinetochore-microtubule attachments, explaining why deletion of the loop ablates chromosome congression. The loop may fold into a more rigid structure than previously assumed and we identify point mutations that impair Ndc80-Ndc80 interactions and recapitulate the effects of loop depletion. The loop also promotes spindle checkpoint signaling, suggesting that the organisation of adjacent Ndc80 complexes is crucial to couple kinetochore-microtubule binding to cell cycle control.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
