Kinetochores are specialized protein structures assembled on the centromere of the chromosome during mitotic and meiotic cell division. This issue presents reviews covering a breadth of topics including chromosome alignment, kinetochore-microtubule attachment and spindle scaling mechanisms. The cover image shows a mouse oocyte in metaphase I. The image was provided by Dr Soni Lacefield.
