The mammalian kinetochore is a multi-layered protein complex that forms on the centromeric chromatin. The kinetochore serves as the attachment hub for the plus ends of microtubules emanating from the centrosomes during mitosis. For karyokinesis, bipolar kinetochore-microtubule attachment and subsequent microtubule depolymerization lead to the development of inter-kinetochore tension between the sister chromatids.

The conserved chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) consists of Ipl1, Sli15, Bir1, and Nbl1, and localizes at the kinetochore/centromere to correct kinetochore attachment errors and to prevent checkpoint silencing. After anaphase entry, the CPC moves from the kinetochore/centromere to the spindle. In budding yeast, CPC subunit Sli15 is phosphorylated by both cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) and Ipl1 kinase.

Proper chromosome segregation depends on the establishment of bioriented kinetochore-microtubule attachments, which often requires multiple rounds of release and reattachment. Aurora B and C kinases phosphorylate kinetochore proteins to release tensionless attachments. Multiple pathways recruit Aurora B/C to the centromere and kinetochore.

Accurate chromosome segregation depends on the proper attachment of kinetochores to spindle microtubules before anaphase onset. The Ipl1/Aurora B kinase corrects improper attachments by phosphorylating kinetochore components and so releasing aberrant kinetochore-microtubule interactions. The localization of Ipl1 to kinetochores in budding yeast depends upon multiple pathways, including the Bub1-Bub3 pathway.
