Cell Reports, 2013 The centromere of many eukaryotes contains highly repetitive sequences marked by methylation of histone H3K9 by Clr4KMT1. This recruits multiple heterochromatin proteins, including Swi6 and Chp1, to form a rigid centromere and ensure accurate chromosome ...

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.

Pan-centromere reveals widespread centromere repositioning of soybean genomes
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2023 Centromere repositioning refers to a de novo centromere formation at another chromosomal position without sequence rearrangement. This phenomenon was frequently encountered in both mammalian and plant species and has been implicated in genome evolution and speciation.

Lipid Droplet‐Localized Spindle Apparatus Coiled‐Coil Protein 1 Regulates Lipid Droplet Distribution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.SPDL1‐L, a long isoform of SPDL1, is identified as a bona fide lipid droplet‐associated protein that acts as a dynein adaptor to drive perinuclear clustering of lipid droplets. By linking lipid droplets to the microtubule network, SPDL1‐L extends the function of SPDL1 beyond mitosis and contributes to lipid droplet organization and nuclear remodeling ...

Transcription of satellite DNAs in insects [PDF]
, 2011 Chromatin condensation is an important regulatory mechanism of gene silencing as well as gene activation for the hundreds of functional protein genes harbored in heterochromatic regions of different insect species.

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.

Clinical and serological features of systemic sclerosis in a multicenter African American cohort: Analysis of the genome research in African American scleroderma patients clinical database. [PDF]
, 2017 Racial differences exist in the severity of systemic sclerosis (SSc). To enhance our knowledge about SSc in African Americans, we established a comprehensive clinical database from the largest multicenter cohort of African American SSc patients assembled

EGR Proteins Mediate Interferon‐Independent Anti‐HSV‐1 Responses Through Viral and Host Targets
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Early antiviral responses are typically mediated by interferons. However, during HSV‐1 infection, host early growth response (Egr) genes, which are not interferon‐stimulated genes, are quickly induced by viral protein ICP0. EGR proteins, in turn, suppress viral lytic infection by activating viral latency‐associated (LAT) and host immune regulatory ...
