Abstract


The budding yeast kinetochore is comprised of >60 proteins and associates with 120 bp of centromeric (CEN) DNA. Kinetochore proteins are highly dynamic and exhibit programmed cell cycle changes in localization. The CEN-specific histone, Cse4p, is one of a few stable kinetochore components and remains associated with CEN DNA throughout mitosis. In contrast, several other kinetochore proteins have been observed along interpolar microtubules and at the midzone during anaphase. The inner kinetochore protein, Ndc10p, is enriched at the spindle midzone in late anaphase. We show that Ndc10p is transported to the plus-ends of interpolar microtubules at the midzone during anaphase, a process that requires survivin (Bir1p), a member of the aurora kinase (Ipl1p) complex, and Cdc14p phosphatase. In addition, Ndc10p is required for essential non-kinetochore processes during mitosis. Cells lacking functional Ndc10p show defects in spindle stability during anaphase and failure to split the septin ring during cytokinesis. This latter phenotype leads to a cell separation defect in ndc10-1 cells. We propose that Ndc10p plays a direct role in maintaining spindle stability during anaphase and coordinates the completion of cell division after chromosome segregation.
