Researchers discovered that PLK1 triggers a process ensuring centromere preservation during cell division by activating the Mis18 complex and controlling CENP-A loading. This finding is key to understanding how cells correctly divide their genetic material, preventing diseases like cancer.
Scientists have resolved a decade-long mystery about the mechanism that maintains the centromere, the crucial region responsible for ensuring accurate DNA division during cell division.
A study revealed that a protein, known as PLK1, triggers a process that coordinates key proteins at the right place and time during cell division – ensuring each new cell has a centromere in the right location.
