The Role of Centromere Defects in Cancer.
The accurate segregation of chromosomes to daughter cells is essential for healthy development to occur. Imbalances in chromosome number have long been associated with cancers amongst other medical disorders. Little is known whether abnormal chromosome numbers are an early contributor to the cancer progression pathway. Centromere DNA and protein defects are known to impact on the fidelity of chromosome segregation in cell and model systems. In this chapter we discuss recent developments in understanding the contribution of centromere abnormalities at the protein and DNA level and their role in cancer in human and mouse systems.
