Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The process of cell division is tightly regulated by cell cycle checkpoints. A failure of cell division is often associated with cellular transformation and tumorigenesis. Recent studies suggests that JSAP is a novel biomarker for various types of cancer. In this study, we investigated the effect of JSAP on cell division in mammalian cells. JSAP knockout caused lagging chromosomes and aneuploidy. Moreover, abnormal subcellular distribution of PLK1 is observed in JSAP knockout cells. Together, these findings suggest that JSAP plays a critical role in the regulation of chromosome segregation during mitotic cell division.
