Front cover : The photomicrographs show both the co‐localization of the glioblastoma tumor suppressor neurofibromin with mitotic microtubules and normally congressed chromosomes at metaphase in astrocytes. Neurofibromin depletion leads to aberrant chromosome congression, a possible mechanism for the generation of CIN/aneuploidy in neurofibromatosis patients who have a 5‐fold increase incidence of glioblastoma.Read the full article ‘ Nuclear import mechanism of neurofibromin for localization on the spindle and function in chromosome congression ’ by X. Koliou, C. Fedonidis, T. Kalpachidou and D. Mangoura ( J. Neurochem. 2016, vol. 136 (1), pp. 78–91) on doi: 10.1111/jnc.13401
