The structural flexibility of MAD1 facilitates the assembly of the Mitotic Checkpoint Complex

The formation of the mitotic checkpoint complex requires an intricate spatial coordination amongst the proteins Bub1, Mad1, Cdc20, and Mad2. Chen et al show that a structural flexibility in Mad1 plays an essential role in achieving this coordination.
