Physical limits on kinesin-5-mediated chromosome congression in the smallest mitotic spindles
A characteristic feature of mitotic spindles is the congression of chromosomes near the spindle equator, a process mediated by dynamic kinetochore microtubules. A major challenge is to understand how precise, submicrometer-scale control of kinetochore microtubule dynamics is achieved in the smalles...
