Centromere and Kinetochore Protein Dynamics During Chromosome Alignment

By Rickbed Nandi

A Note to Readers
This book has been written with a dual objective: to serve as a rigorous reference for researchers and graduate students studying centromere and kinetochore dynamics, and to stimulate conceptual thinking about how protein machinery choreographs one of the most elegant acts in biology - the alignment and segregation of chromosomes.
I have deliberately woven together molecular mechanisms, imaging innovations, and evolutionary perspectives, not simply to catalog findings, but to narrate the dynamic interplay of proteins, forces, and signals at the chromosomal center stage.
Each chapter can be read independently, although together they offer a unified understanding of this complex machinery. Diagrams, molecular pathways, and protein interaction networks are included where essential. Readers are encouraged to explore the appendices for protocols and cross-species comparisons, and to interpret the figures as living stories rather than static labels.
This is a book of biology, but it is also a book of motion, timing, and balance - and I hope it inspires you as much as it did me.
