Fission yeast Dis1 is an unconventional TOG/XMAP215 that induces microtubule catastrophe to drive chromosome pulling

Y. Murase, M. Yamagishi, N. Okada, M. Toya, J. Yajima, T. Hamada, M. Sato

This study shows that Dis1 in fission yeast promotes microtubule catastrophe at kinetochores to drive chromosome movement during cell division, differing from other TOG/XMAP215 orthologs.

Coupled yawing and orbital rotation in kinesin motility revealed by polarization measurement of gold nanorods

M. Sugawa, Y. Maruyama, M. Yamagishi, R. A. Cross, J. Yajima

This study uses gold nanorods to measure rotational motion in kinesin motors, revealing biaxial rotation that aids in navigating obstacles.

Plus-end directionality is present in the catalytic core of kinesin-14 minus-end directed motors.

M. Yamagishi, J. Yajima

The paper shows that the catalytic core of kinesin-14 has intrinsic plus-end directionality, and the neck-helix region is necessary for minus-end directionality.
