abstract：:The back-to-back geometry of sister kinetochores is essential in preventing loss or damage of chromosomes during mitosis. Kinetochore orientation is generated in part by a process of resolving kinetochores at the centromere (centromere resolution) prior to spindle interactions. Because few of the genes required for ce...

abstract：:We define a new gene, SRD1, involved in the processing of pre-rRNA to mature rRNA. The SRD1 gene was identified by selecting for second-site suppressors of the previously described rrp1-1 mutation. The rrp1-1 mutation causes temperature-sensitive growth, a conditional defect in processing of 27S pre-rRNA to mature 25S...
