The copy-number and varied strengths of MELT motifs in Spc105 balance the strength and responsiveness of the spindle assembly checkpoint

eLife, 2020
During mitosis, the Spindle Assembly Checkpoint (SAC) maintains genome stability while also ensuring timely anaphase onset. To maintain genome stability, the SAC must be strong to delay anaphase even if just one chromosome is unattached, but for timely ...

Condensin II resolves chromosomal associations to enable anaphase I segregation in Drosophila male meiosis. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2008
Several meiotic processes ensure faithful chromosome segregation to create haploid gametes. Errors to any one of these processes can lead to zygotic aneuploidy with the potential for developmental abnormalities.

Smc5/6 coordinates formation and resolution of joint molecules with chromosome morphology to ensure meiotic divisions [PDF]

, 2013
During meiosis, Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) complexes underpin two fundamental features of meiosis: homologous recombination and chromosome segregation.

DNA damage induced during mitosis undergoes DNA repair synthesis. [PDF]

, 2020
Understanding the mitotic DNA damage response (DDR) is critical to our comprehension of cancer, premature aging and developmental disorders which are marked by DNA repair deficiencies.

Kinetochore-localized BUB-1/BUB-3 complex promotes anaphase onset in C. elegans

Journal of Cell Biology, 2015
In early C. elegans embryos, the kinetochore-localized BUB- 1/BUB-3 complex promotes anaphase onset independently of its roles in spindle checkpoint signaling and chromosome alignment.

Effectiveness of Multivitamins vs Folic Acid on Prevention of Neural Tube Defects in Mouse Genetic Models and Human Organoids

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Folic acid (FA) and multivitamins/minerals (MVM) are recommended for the prevention of neural tube defects (NTDs). Using a novel human neural tube‐like organoid system and mouse models, the study compares the effectiveness of two supplements on NTDs and cellular behaviors.

Meiotic behavior of small chromosomes in maize

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
The typical behavior of chromosomes in meiosis is that homologous pairs synapse, recombine and then separate at anaphase I. At anaphase II, sister chromatids separate.

NuSAP Safeguards Centriole Integrity to Mediate CEP57‐CEP152 Torus Recruitment for Proper Engagement

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel role for the microtubule stabilizer NuSAP at centrioles. NuSAP depletion destabilizes the centriole's tubulin structure, causing premature disengagement, PCM defects, and mis‐localization of the CEP57‐CEP63‐CEP152 complex. By reinforcing centriole architecture, NuSAP enables early CEP57 loading and initiates a newly proposed ...

Nampt-mediated spindle sizing secures a post-anaphase increase in spindle speed required for extreme asymmetry

Nature Communications, 2020
Meiotic cell division in oocytes is asymmetric and requires microtubule spindle migration after anaphase-onset. Here, the authors show that Nampt, an enzyme of the Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthetic pathway, contributes to post-anaphase
