CENP-A Is Dispensable for Mitotic Centromere Function after Initial Centromere/Kinetochore Assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Human centromeres are defined by chromatin containing the histone H3 variant CENP-A assembled onto repetitive alphoid DNA sequences. By inducing rapid, complete degradation of endogenous CENP-A, we now demonstrate that once the first steps of centromere ...

A time out for CENP-A

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2017
Proper chromosome segregation relies on a functional centromere–kinetochore interface. We showed that chromatin containing CENtromere Protein A (CENP-A) is essential for centromere assembly, but dispensable for chromosome segregation in the presence of ...

SEQUENCE OF CENTROMERE SEPARATION: ROLE OF CENTROMERIC HETEROCHROMATIN [PDF]

open access: yesGenetics, 1982
ABSTRACT The late metaphase-early anaphase cells from various tissues of male Mus musculus, M. poschiavinus, M. spretus, M. castaneus, female and male Bos taurus (cattle) and female Myopus schisticolor (wood lemming) were analyzed for centromeres that showed separation into two daughter centromeres and those that did not show such ...

Mepylome: A Point‐of‐Care Tumor Diagnostic Toolkit for Tumor DNA Methylation and Copy Number Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
DNA methylation and chromosomal copy number profiling have recently become essential for tumor diagnostics. The open‐source tool Mepylome enables this task in clinical routine. It combines several machine learning strategies and allows users to interactively examine respective data through an intuitive graphical interface. Running up to 65 times faster

Fluorescence in situ hybridisation study of micronuclei in C3A cells following exposure to ELF-magnetic fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Human C3A cells were exposed to extremely low frequency (50 Hz) magnetic fields (ELF-MF's) up to 500 mu T. They were subjected to the micronucleus assay using a Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) technique with an in-house pan-centromere probe. We

Centromere deletion in Cryptococcus deuterogattii leads to neocentromere formation and chromosome fusions

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus deuterogattii is RNAi-deficient and lacks active transposons in its genome. C. deuterogattii has regional centromeres that contain only transposon relics.

Autoantibody Response Toward Chromatin in Patients With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) frequently exhibit antinuclear antibodies (ANAs), but the specific antigen target recognized by them and the presence of additional autoantibody specificities in patients with JIA remains elusive.

Comparative Analysis of Tandem Repeats from Hundreds of Species Reveals Unique Insights into Centromere Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Centromeres are essential for chromosome segregation, yet their DNA sequences evolve rapidly. In most animals and plants that have been studied, centromeres contain megabase-scale arrays of tandem repeats.

CENP-A Ubiquitylation Is Inherited through Dimerization between Cell Divisions

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
The presence of chromatin containing the histone H3 variant CENP-A dictates the location of the centromere in a DNA sequence-independent manner. But the mechanism by which centromere inheritance occurs is largely unknown. We previously reported that CENP-

A Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Trial of Hydroxychloroquine in Incomplete Lupus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Patients with features of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who do not fulfill classification criteria can be designated as incomplete lupus erythematosus (ILE). This condition includes individuals with a high risk of progression to SLE. Treatment of ILE may reduce symptoms, severity, and incidence of SLE.
