Abstract

Chromosome segregation depends on proper orientation of sister kinetochores. The protein Csm1 is required for mono-orientation of sister kinetochores at meiosis I in budding yeast. Surprisingly, its homologue in fission yeast appears instead of clamp micro-tubule binding sites together on single mitotic kinetochores so that they all face one spindle pole.
