Chromosome biorientation produces hundreds of piconewtons at a metazoan kinetochore
Chromosomes bind microtubules (MT) from opposite spindle poles and the generated tension stabilizes kinetochore-MT attachments. Here the authors measure kinetochore forces by engineering two force sensors and propose that kinetochore fibers exert hundreds of pNs of force to bioriented kinetochores.
