“…Spindle reformation defects, cell division alterations, and mislocalization of cytokinesis regulators at the midbody in SRCAP-depleted cells, together with specific interactions detected in telophase-synchronized cells provides evidence that SRCAP participates in two different steps of cell division; it may ensure proper chromosome segregation, regulating microtubule organization and mitotic spindle assembly, and it may be required for midbody function during abscission, participating in the recruitment of cytokinesis regulators, such as MKLP2, Aurora B, PLK1, Cep55, Anillin, Alix, and Spastin (and possibly other factors) to the midbody, ensuring the final cut that is essential for proper abscission. In this context, crosstalk between SRCAP and cytokinesis regulators may occur to control midbody architecture and function similar to the examples in the literature(38).Several ATPases, such as Katanin, Cdc48/p97, ISWI, VPS4, and Spastin, interact with microtubules and play direct roles in mitosis and cytokinesis(57)(58)(59). The ESCRT-III complex protein CHMP1B recruits Spastin to the midbody(58).…”
