Molecular basis of Cyclin B1-CDK1 recruitment by MAD1

The interaction between Cyclin B1-CDK1 and MAD1 recruits kinase activity to the nuclear pore complex and kinetochore corona to sustain spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) signaling. Here, we characterize a short linear motif (SLiM) within MAD1 that mediates its interaction with Cyclin B1. This SLiM peptide is specific for B-type cyclins and lacks the canonical "RxL" cyclin-binding consensus…
