Description

General description

Mad2, also known as MAD2, MAD2L1, or Mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint protein MAD2A, is a mitotic spindle assembly checkpoint protein. The spindle checkpoint makes sure that all the chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate before anaphase begins which means that all chromosomes are attached to the spindle before anaphase can start. The spindle checkpoint becomes triggered when the chromosome(s) are unaligned. Mad2 then binds to the anaphase promoting complex (APC) and CDC20. This complex prevents the cell from transitioning into anaphase and ultimately from cell death or disease.
