The KNL-1/Knl1 outer kinetochore protein caught regulating F-actin
Kinetochores are multiprotein complexes that link chromosomes to microtubules and are essential for chromosome segregation during cell divisions. In this issue, Alves Domingos et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202311147) show that the conserved KNL-1/Knl1 protein of the Knl1/Mis12/Ndc80 (KMN) outer kinetochore complex postmitotically regulates F-actin to shape somatosensory dendrites.
