Abstract:
Provided herein are compositions and methods for the treatment of cancer by activating the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) in cells. In particular, dimerized Mps1 and Spc105/KNL1 constructs are provided as tunable activators of SAC, allowing for control of chromosome segregation accuracy and prevention of aneuploidies that are common in cancer.
