Ndc80/Nuf2-like protein KKIP1 connects a stable kinetoplastid outer kinetochore complex to the inner kinetochore and responds to metaphase tension

L. Brusini, S. D'Archivio, J. McDonald, B. Wickstead

This study identifies a stable 9-protein kinetoplastid outer kinetochore complex linked to the inner kinetochore via KKIP1, which responds to metaphase tension through elongation.
