Calcineurin‐Dependent Stress Adaptation Enables Caspofungin Heteroresistance Leading to Stable Resistance in Candida Glabrata

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Caspofungin heteroresistance is prevalent in clinical Candida glabrata isolates and depends on calcineurin‐mediated stress adaptation. This transient phenotype serves as a reservoir for resistance evolution, enabling the emergence of stable resistant descendants under prolonged drug pressure.

Centromere mechanical maturation during mammalian cell mitosis

Nature Communications, 2019
During mitosis, tension at the centromere occurs from the spindle but the role of centromere mechanics in controlling metaphase tension is poorly understood.

Sister centromere fusion during meiosis I depends on maintaining cohesins and destabilizing microtubule attachments.

PLoS Genetics, 2019
Sister centromere fusion is a process unique to meiosis that promotes co-orientation of the sister kinetochores, ensuring they attach to microtubules from the same pole during metaphase I.

Alpha-satellite RNA transcripts are repressed by centromere–nucleolus associations

eLife, 2020
Although originally thought to be silent chromosomal regions, centromeres are instead actively transcribed. However, the behavior and contributions of centromere-derived RNAs have remained unclear.

TET1 Inhibition Promotes Therapeutic Sensitivity in TP53‐Mutant GBM by Influencing Genome Fragility and Altering TAMs Biology

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In TP53mut GBM cells, reduced P53 function is associated with increased TET1 expression. Genetic or pharmacological inhibition of TET1 correlates with genome fragility, including DNA damage, cellular senescence, telomere shortening, and reactive oxygen species accumulation, which may contribute to increased efficacy of antitumor therapy.

A Personalized Haplotype‐Resolved Near‐Gapless Genome Framework for Somatic Variant Discovery in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A patient‐specific, haplotype‐resolved genome framework improves detection and interpretation of somatic variants in hepatocellular carcinoma. Using multi‐platform sequencing, the personalized assembly resolves complex regions including centromeres and MHC/HLA loci, enhances structural variant discovery, and links regulatory alterations to allele ...

Temporal characterization of homology-independent centromere coupling in meiotic prophase.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundOver the past thirty years several reports of the pairing or association of non-homologous centromeres during meiotic prophase have appeared in the literature.

RSF1‐Dependent PAR Turnover Promotes 53BP1 Liquid Condensate Formation at DNA Damage Sites

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
At sites of DNA damage, RSF1 recruits PARG to accelerate PAR turnover, triggering a switch from PAR‐driven condensates to 53BP1 condensates. This condensate transition enables p53‐dependent gene transcription and coordinates the DNA damage response.

Centromere inactivation on a neo-Y fusion chromosome in threespine stickleback fish [PDF]

, 2016
Having one and only one centromere per chromosome is essential for proper chromosome segregation during both mitosis and meiosis. Chromosomes containing two centromeres are known as dicentric and often mis-segregate during cell division, resulting in ...
