The cell cycle process whereby spindle microtubules become physically associated with a chromosome during meiosis. The cell cycle process whereby spindle microtubules become physically associated with a chromosome during mitosis. The process by which genetic material, in the form of chromosomes, is organized into specific structures and then physically separated and apportioned to two or more sets. Any process by which a microtubule is maintained in a specific location in a cell. Any process that is carried out at the cellular level, but not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures comprising microtubules and their associated proteins. The cell cycle process whereby sister chromatids establish stable attachments to microtubules emanating from opposite spindle poles. The process by which spindle microtubules become physically associated with the proteins making up the kinetochore complex. Any process by which a protein is maintained in a specific location within, or in the membrane of, a cell, and is prevented from moving elsewhere. The process by which spindle microtubules become physically associated with a chromosome.
