Abstract

Analysis of a mutation in the Drosophila Mps1 ortholog further demonstrates the universality of Mps1 function in the spindle checkpoint, but suggests Mps1 function in centrosome duplication might not be so conserved. The work also contributes new additions to a list of Mps1 functions that continues to grow with each new study.
