kinetochrome or kinetochore?

[edit]
stabilization of kinetochromo fibres requires the trimetric structure of Clathrin

The contributor obviously meant kinetochrome but that word is too rare compared with kinetochore. From the first glance at roots from which they're constructed, both might be synonyms, however my experience does not allow to judge which one is more correct. Found no online source which explains this ambiguity. In general, "kinetochrome+clathrin" produces no search results at all; on the other hand, for example, both versions can be found for doi:10.1007/BF01322776. The more popular version won. saimhe (talk) 10:13, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have added a citation for the last claim, regarding the contribution of Clathrin to kinetochore stability Silasmellor (talk) 10:48, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Clathrin Coated Pit

[edit]

It's unfortunate that a search for the clathrin coated pits redirects to this article, but then the subject is not directly mentioned. This is confusion to someone who would like to learn more about the exact nature of these pits and how they form. Or am I missing something?85.178.3.14 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:56, 7 June 2009 (UTC).[reply]
