Chromosome segregation and proper alignment in mitosis relies on cohesion between sister chromatids and the interaction of the kinetochore with spindle microtubules. Vertebrate Sgo 1 localizes to kinetochores and is required to prevent premature sister centromere separation in mitosis. Sgo 1 is degraded by the anaphase-promoting complex, allowing the separation of sister centromeres in anaphase. However, little is known about the molecular basis of Sgo 1 degradation and its temporal control during mitosis. Here, we show that APC/C targets human Sgo 1 for degradation through a destruction box motif (D-box) in its C-terminus. Mutation in the D-box causes transient metaphase arrest, and mutation in the D-box leads to defects in chromosome alignment and segregation through its effect on the localization of Aurora B and CENP-E. These results provide a link between sister centromere cohesion and bipolar attachment of kinetochores.
