Detection of Ultrafine Anaphase Bridges [PDF]
, 2017 Ultrafine anaphase bridges (UFBs) are thin DNA threads linking the separating sister chromatids in the anaphase of mitosis. UFBs are thought to form when topological DNA entanglements between two chromatids are not resolved prior to anaphase onset.

The Application of Carbon Dots in Crops for Sustainable Agriculture
ChemistryEurope, EarlyView.Carbon dots serve as versatile nanoagents across the crop life cycle. They promote plant growth and photosynthesis, enhance resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, aid in postharvest preservation, and enable sensitive detection of contaminants.

Dynamic SUMO remodeling drives a series of critical events during the meiotic divisions in Caenorhabditis elegans. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Chromosome congression and segregation in C. elegans oocytes depend on a complex of conserved proteins that forms a ring around the center of each bivalent during prometaphase; these complexes are then removed from chromosomes at anaphase onset and ...

Mitotic antipairing of homologous and sex chromosomes via spatial restriction of two haploid sets. [PDF]
, 2018 Pairing homologous chromosomes is required for recombination. However, in nonmeiotic stages it can lead to detrimental consequences, such as allelic misregulation and genome instability, and is rare in human somatic cells.

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

MethodsX, 2018 Immunofluorescence staining is used extensively to examine various types of cellular events. However, even when an antibody can detect its epitopes in western blotting, it sometimes fails to detect its epitopes when used for immunofluorescence staining ...

Chiasmata promote monopolar attachment of sister chromatids and their co-segregation toward the proper pole during meiosis I. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2011 The chiasma is a structure that forms between a pair of homologous chromosomes by crossover recombination and physically links the homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Chiasmata are essential for the attachment of the homologous chromosomes to opposite

Genes & Development, 1996 Anaphase initiation has been postulated to be controlled through the ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis of an unknown inhibitor. This process involves the anaphase promoting complex (APC), a specific ubiquitin ligase that has been shown to be involved in ...

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.
