Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 This study is an example of using 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) for detecting sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) at chromosomal level. Here we report a detailed protocol for differential labeling sister chromatids in barley (Hordeum vulgare, 2n = 14 ...

PIASgamma is required for faithful chromosome segregation in human cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2006 BACKGROUND:The precision of the metaphase-anaphase transition ensures stable genetic inheritance. The spindle checkpoint blocks anaphase onset until the last chromosome biorients at metaphase plate, then the bonds between sister chromatids are removed ...

Cohesin is required for meiotic spindle assembly independent of its role in cohesion in C. elegans.
PLoS Genetics, 2022 Accurate chromosome segregation requires a cohesin-mediated physical attachment between chromosomes that are to be segregated apart, and a bipolar spindle with microtubule plus ends emanating from exactly two poles toward the paired chromosomes. We asked

Mechanics of Sister Chromatids studied with a Polymer Model
Frontiers in Physics, 2013 Sister chromatid cohesion denotes the phenomenon that sister chromatids are initially attached to each other in mitosis to guarantee the error-free distribution into the daughter cells.

The cohesin subunit Rad21 is required for synaptonemal complex maintenance, but not sister chromatid cohesion, during Drosophila female meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 Replicated sister chromatids are held in close association from the time of their synthesis until their separation during the next mitosis. This association is mediated by the ring-shaped cohesin complex that appears to embrace the sister chromatids ...

Sister Chromatid Cohesion [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2012 During S phase, not only does DNA have to be replicated, but also newly synthesized DNA molecules have to be connected with each other. This sister chromatid cohesion is essential for the biorientation of chromosomes on the mitotic or meiotic spindle, and is thus an essential prerequisite for chromosome segregation.

Helping chromosomes and chromatids stay on track
eLife, 2012 The prevention of premature interactions between microtubules and kinetochores is essential to ensuring that meiosis produces gametes with the correct number of chromosomes.

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2015 Even though aluminum is the third most common element present in the earth's crust, information regarding its toxicity remains scarce. It is known that in certain cases, aluminum is neurotoxic, but its effect in other tissues is unknown.

A single cohesin complex performs mitotic and meiotic functions in the protist tetrahymena.
PLoS Genetics, 2013 The cohesion of sister chromatids in the interval between chromosome replication and anaphase is important for preventing the precocious separation, and hence nondisjunction, of chromatids.

Pch2 prevents Mec1/Tel1-mediated Hop1 phosphorylation occurring independently of Red1 in budding yeast meiosis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 A prominent feature of meiosis in most sexually reproducing organisms is interhomolog recombination whereby a significant fraction of the programmed meiotic double-strand breaks are repaired using intact homologous non-sister chromatids rather than ...
