The higher order structure of the centromere

open access: yes, 1987
The architecture of the centromere region of mouse chromosomes has been studied in cells grown in the presence of 5-azacytidine. This drug interferes with normal condensation producing elongated centromere regions.

HO Endonuclease-Initiated Recombination in Yeast Meiosis Fails To Promote Homologous Centromere Pairing and Is Not Constrained To Utilize the Dmc1 Recombinase

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018
Crossover recombination during meiosis is accompanied by a dramatic chromosome reorganization. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the onset of meiotic recombination by the Spo11 transesterase leads to stable pairwise associations between previously ...

A genetic and historical perspective on the origins of keratitis fugax hereditaria

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the genetic and genealogical background of keratitis fugax hereditaria (KFH), a periodic corneal disease caused by the heterozygous pathogenic variant c.61G>C in the NLRP3 gene. KFH is characterized by recurrent unilateral autoinflammatory attacks alternating between the eyes and permanent corneal opacities.

Chromosomal and immune dysregulation underlying granular mitosis in glioblastoma

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Granular mitosis (GM) morphology is linked to PI3K/PTEN pathway alterations, chromosomal disorganization, and impaired innate immunity. Cells exhibiting GM morphology are associated with localized immune responses within their immediate spatial microenvironment.

Constitutive centromere-associated network controls centromere drift in vertebrate cells

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2017
Centromeres are specified by sequence-independent epigenetic mechanisms, and the centromere position may drift at each cell cycle, but once this position is specified, it may not be frequently moved.

Immunohistochemistry as a tool for identifying PDGFRA amplification in central nervous system tumors

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
PDGFRA gene amplification is now recognized as a diagnostically and prognostically relevant molecular alteration in central nervous system tumors. Herein, we demonstrated that PDGFRA immunohistochemistry is a highly specific and sensitive biomarker for identifying PDGFRA amplification and should be part of the neuropathologist's routine panel of ...

Determining the role of centromeric long non-coding RNA in chromosome segregation in saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yes, 2016
Centromeric DNA sequences are not conserved among organisms and centromeres are proposed to be regulated epigenetically. Centromeric transcription is one of the epigenetic factors identified in many eukaryotes, and increasing evidences indicate that ...

Notoginsenoside‐Fa mitigates vascular endothelial permeability via targeting SUGT1 to stabilize NLRP3 in a resting state

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Notoginsenoside‐Fa (Noto‐Fa) is an emerging active compound derived from notoginseng with promise in treating cardiovascular diseases. The development of cardiovascular diseases is intricately linked to the damage of vascular endothelium and it is widely acknowledged that numerous chronic inflammation pathways, especially the ...

The Behavior of the Maize B Chromosome and Centromere

open access: yes, 2018
The maize B chromosome is a non-essential chromosome with an accumulation mechanism. The dispensable nature of the B chromosome facilitates many types of genetic studies in maize.
