sce:SGO1
Genes: 11
SGD DescriptionComponent of the spindle checkpoint; involved in sensing lack of tension on mitotic chromosomes; protects centromeric Rec8p at meiosis I; required for accurate chromosomal segregation at meiosis II and for mitotic chromosome stability; recruits condensin to the pericentric region of chromosomes during meiosis; dissociates from pericentromeres when sister kinetochores are under tension
