The role of centromere-binding factor 3 (CBF3) in spindle stability, cytokinesis, and kinetochore attachment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The spindle midzone is critical for spindle stability and cytokinesis. Chromosomal passenger proteins relocalize from chromosomes to the spindle midzone after anaphase onset. The recent localization of the inner-kinetochore, centromere-binding factor 3 (CBF3) complex to the spindle midzone in budding yeast has led to the discovery of novel functions for this complex in addition to its essential role at kinetochores. In G1/S cells, CBF3 components are detected along dynamic microtubules, where they can "search-and-capture" newly replicated centromeres. During anaphase, CBF3 is transported to the microtubule plus-ends of the spindle midzone. Consistent with this localization, cells containing a mutation in the CBF3 subunit Ndc10p show defects in spindle stability during anaphase. In addition, ndc10-1 cells show defects during cytokinesis, resulting in a defect in cell abscission. These results highlight the importance of midzone-targeted proteins in coordinating mitosis with cell division. Here we discuss these findings and explore the significance of CBF3 transport to microtubule plus-ends at the spindle midzone.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
