Chromosome cohesion: A polymerase for chromosome bridges [PDF]
How do cells ensure that sister chromatids produced during DNA replication stay connected with each other until their separation in anaphase? New insight is provided by the discovery of DNA polymerase kappa, which has been found to be required for building the connections between sister chromatids.

The study of patterns and evolutionary processes in neotropical fish is not always an easy task due the wide distribution of major fish groups in large and extensive river basins. Thus, it is not always possible to detect or correlate possible effects of

The chromosomes of the Filariae [PDF]
An understanding of the nature of the chromosomes of the filariae is expected to greatly assist the future interpretation of genome data. Filarial development is not eutelic, and there does not seem to be a fixed number of cell divisions in the way that there is in Caenorhabditis.

Chromosome Oscillations in Mitosis [PDF]
Successful cell division requires a tight regulation of chromosome motion via the activity of molecular motors. Many of the key players at the origin of the forces generating the movement have been identified, but their spatial and temporal organization remains elusive.

Role of the Number of Microtubules in Chromosome Segregation during Cell Division [PDF]
Faithful segregation of genetic material during cell division requires alignment of chromosomes between two spindle poles and attachment of their kinetochores to each of the poles. Failure of these complex dynamical processes leads to chromosomal instability (CIN), a characteristic feature of several diseases including cancer.

The chromosomal organization of horizontal gene transfer in bacteria
Bacterial adaptation is accelerated by the acquisition of novel traits through horizontal gene transfer, but the integration of these genes affects genome organization.

Chromosomal rearrangements can alter the rate and patterns of gene flow within or between species through a reduction in the fitness of chromosomal hybrids or by reducing recombination rates in rearranged areas of the genome.

Meiosis: the chromosomal foundation of reproduction
Meiosis is the chromosomal foundation of reproduction, with errors in this important process leading to aneuploidy and/or infertility. In this review celebrating the 50th anniversary of the founding of the Society for the Study of Reproduction, the ...
