Abstract
The mammalian mitotic spindle segregates an equal number of chromosomes to daughter cells. Over the course of spindle assembly, many initially erroneous attachments between kinetochores and microtubules are fixed through a process called error correction. Despite the importance of chromosome segregation errors in many human health conditions, we lack quantitative methods to characterize the dynamic error correction process and how it is impaired in disease states. We have developed a novel experimental method and analysis framework to quantify chromosome segregation error correction in human tissue culture cells with live cell confocal imaging of spindle assembly, timed premature chromosome separation, and automated counting of kinetochores after cell division.
