Abstract excerpt
Stable maintenance of genetic information requires chromosome segregation to occur with high accuracy. Anaphase is triggered when ring-shaped cohesin is cleaved by separase, a protease regulated by association with its inhibitor securin. Dispensability of vertebrate securin strongly suggests additional means of separase regulation. Indeed, sister chromatid separation but not securin degradation is inhibited by...
