DESCRIPTION:The protein/DNA complex known as the kinetochore links chromos
 omes to the microtubules of the mitotic spindle. The kinetochores of buddi
 ng yeast cells appear to be elementary\, unimodular versions of the multim
 odule kinetochores of metazoan cells. Most of the 50–80 distinct protein
  species that make up a yeast kinetochore are organized into well-defined 
 subcomplexes. Prof. Harrison has been studying the structures of these sub
 complexes using a diverse set of approaches including cryoEM and X-ray cry
 stallography. In this seminar\, he will present the latest advances of his
  group on the structure\, function\, and evolution of the kinetochore
