inner plaque of mitotic spindle pole body
One of three laminate structures that form the mitotic spindle pole body; the inner plaque is in the nucleus. [GO:0061497]
Part of: mitotic spindle pole body (GO:0044732)
Taxonomic distribution
NCBITaxon:4932Saccharomyces cerevisiae — COMMON: Budding yeast is a characterized fungal model for the nuclear inner plaque of the mitotic spindle pole body. [DOI:10.1146/annurev.cellbio.20.022003.114106]
Canonical examples
NCBITaxon:4932Saccharomyces cerevisiae — Budding-yeast reference system in which the layered mitotic SPB and its nuclear microtubule-nucleating inner plaque have been reviewed. [DOI:10.1146/annurev.cellbio.20.022003.114106]
Functions
- mitotic nuclear microtubule organization — The mitotic inner plaque is the nuclear face of the budding-yeast SPB that organizes mitotic nuclear microtubule nucleation.
DOI:10.1146/annurev.cellbio.20.022003.114106Jaspersen and Winey 2004 reviewed the budding-yeast SPB inner plaque as the nuclear site for microtubule nucleation.

Discussions
- INTERPRETATION (RESOLVED): Keep the mitotic SPB inner plaque narrower than the general SPB inner plaque. GO:0061497 denotes the inner plaque of the mitotic spindle pole body, is narrower than GO:0005822, and is part of the GO:0044732 mitotic spindle pole body.
- CURATION_TODO (OPEN): Resolve exact source-neutral family groundings for mitotic inner-plaque constituents. This first GO-backed mitotic inner-plaque record captures the cell-cycle-specific layer without guessing exact InterPro, Pfam, NCBIfam, or Complex Portal groundings for budding-yeast inner-plaque proteins.
