Abstract excerpt
Mitotic spindle checkpoint proteins have been shown to play a crucial role in the accurate segregation of chromosomes during cell division. Bub3 is a member of a group of mitotic checkpoint proteins that are essential for this process. To investigate the role of Bub3 in chromosome segregation and cancer development, we analyzed haploinsufficient cells in mice. Heterozygous Bub3 embryonic fibroblasts displayed...
