The RAS GTPase RIT1 compromises mitotic fidelity through spindle assembly checkpoint suppression
7 Jul 2021
Abstract excerpt
The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) functions as a sensor of unattached kinetochores that delays mitotic progression into anaphase until proper chromosome segregation is guaranteed. 1 , 2 Disruptions to this safety mechanism lead to genomic instability and aneuploidy, which serve as the genetic cause of embryonic demise, congenital birth defects, intellectual disability, and cancer. 3 , 4 However, despite the...
