Faithful chromosome segregation during mitosis is essential for genome integrity and is mediated by the bi-oriented attachment of replicated chromosomes to spindle microtubules through kinetochores.

The spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes. The centrioles are now at opposite ends of the cell. As in mitosis prometaphase, fibers from both ends of the cells attach to each one of the four ...

Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to the ...
