A kinetochore is a disc-shaped protein structure, found at the centromere of a chromatid, to which microtubules attach during cell division.* * The kinetochore (, ) is a protein structure on chromatids where the spindle fibers attach during cell division to pull sister chromatids apart. Their proteins help to hold the sister chromatids together and also play a role in chromosome editing.The kinetochore forms in eukaryotes, assembles on the centromere and links the chromosome to microtubule polymers from the mitotic spindle during mitosis and meiosis. * Monocentric organisms, including vertebrates, fungi, and most plants, have a single centromeric region on each chromosome which assembles one kinetochore. Holocentric organisms, such as nematodes and some plants, assemble a kinetochore along the entire length of a chromosome.The kinetochore contains two regions: * * an inner kinetochore, which is tightly associated with the centromere DNA, assembled in a specialized form of chromatin persiste |
