The nonmotor adaptor protein HMMR maintains the kinetics and integrity of chromosome segregation by promoting TPX2-Eg5 complexes that dampen Eg5-mediated forces and support K-fiber stability, kinetochore–microtubule attachments, and inter-kinetochore tension. HMMR is needed to prevent the generation of aneuploid progeny cells.
