Abstract
The separation of duplicated chromosomes during mitosis is a pivotal step in the process of cellular division. Therefore, the orchestrated events that take place to ensure proper attachment and stabilization of kMTs are keen areas of interest in the mitosis field. Here we describe the methods used to study kMT attachments via in vitro biochemical methods and in vivo cell biological approaches.
