Homolog Segregation Depends on <strong>Meiosis</strong>-<br />
Specific, Kinetochore-Associated Proteins<br />
• Kinetochores<br />
– protein complexes associated with the centromeres<br />
• Kinetochores on the two sister chromatids attach to opposite poles of the<br />
spindle<br />
• Segregate into different daughter cells at anaphase<br />
• Arms of the sister chromatids of homologs separate at anaphase I
