General Information
Term mitotic metaphase chromosome recapture ID (Ontology) GO:1990942 (Gene Ontology)
Definition A mechanism to recapture 'lost' chromosomes (chromosomes which have become detached from the spindle) during metaphase of mitotic chromosome segregation. Chromosomes with unattached kinetochores are migrated along (non polar) spindle microtubules to the mitotic spindle pole body by a combination of microtubule depolymerisation and 'kinetochore sliding' (migration of the chromosome along the microtubule). The chromosome subsequently migrates along the polar spindle microtubule to the metaphase plate.[ PubMed:18256284 ]
Also Known As "kinetochore retrieval" ; "metaphase chromosome retrieval to the spindle pole body" ; "microtubule sliding involved in kinetochore retrieval" (for all, see Synonyms field below)
