Neuroblastoma is a pediatric embryonal malignancy characterized by impaired neuronal differentiation. Differentiation status in neuroblastoma strongly affects the clinical outcome, thus, enforcement of differentiation becomes a treatment strategy for ...

Bub3-Bub1 binding to Spc7/KNL1 toggles the spindle checkpoint switch by licensing the interaction of Bub1 with Mad1-Mad2 [PDF]
The spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) ensures that sister chromatids do not separate until all chromosomes are attached to spindle microtubules and bi-oriented. Spindle checkpoint proteins, including Mad1, Mad2, Mad3 (BubR1), Bub1, Bub3, and Mph1 (Mps1),

We analyzed the behavior of GPR143 gene‐deficient mice. GPR143‐KO mice displayed a mixed psychiatric phenotype. GPR143 may play a role in mesolimbic and mesocortical functions underlying sensory gating, reward, social hierarchy, cognition, and emotional regulation. ABSTRACT GPR143, originally identified as the gene product of ocular albinism 1 (OA1), a

Gene expression and cell identity controlled by anaphase-promoting complex
Metazoan development requires the robust proliferation of progenitor cells, the identities of which are established by tightly controlled transcriptional networks1. As gene expression is globally inhibited during mitosis, the transcriptional programs that define cell identity must be restarted in each cell cycle2-5 but how this is accomplished is ...

Intertwined Functions of Separase and Caspase in Cell Division and Programmed Cell Death. [PDF]
Timely sister chromatid separation, promoted by separase, is essential for faithful chromosome segregation. Separase is a member of the CD clan of cysteine proteases, which also includes the pro-apoptotic enzymes known as caspases.

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]
Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation. Kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.

Loss of E3 ligase HvST1 function substantially increases distal crossover frequency
Summary This study characterizes the function of a grass‐specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, HvST1, in regulating synapsis and crossover (CO) formation during meiosis in barley (Hordeum vulgare). In large‐genome cereals, COs are predominantly restricted to distal chromosomal regions, limiting genetic recombination and breeding flexibility.

An eIF4E-binding protein regulates katanin protein levels in C. elegans embryos. [PDF]
In Caenorhabditis elegans, the MEI-1-katanin microtubule-severing complex is required for meiosis, but must be down-regulated during the transition to embryogenesis to prevent defects in mitosis.

Epigenomics‐guided precision oncology: Chromatin variants in prostate tumor evolution
Abstract Prostate cancer is a common malignancy that in 5%–30% leads to treatment‐resistant and highly aggressive disease. Metastasis‐potential and treatment‐resistance is thought to rely on increased plasticity of the cancer cells—a mechanism whereby cancer cells alter their identity to adapt to changing environments or therapeutic pressures to create

The Long and Viscous Road: Uncovering Nuclear Diffusion Barriers in Closed Mitosis [PDF]
During Saccharomyces cerevisiae closed mitosis, parental identity is sustained by the asymmetric segregation of ageing factors. Such asymmetry has been hypothesized to occur via diffusion barriers, constraining protein lateral exchange in cellular ...
