Centromere function in asymmetric cell division in Drosophila female and male germline stem cells

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2021
The centromere is the constricted chromosomal region required for the correct separation of the genetic material at cell division. The kinetochore protein complex assembles at the centromere and captures microtubules emanating from the centrosome to ...

Detection of chromosome aberrations in the human interphase nucleus by visualization of specific target DNAs with radioactive and non-radioactive in situ hybridization techniques: diagnosis of trisomy 18 with probe L1.84 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The localization of chromosome 18 in human interphase nuclei is demonstrated by use of radioactive and nonradioactive in situ hybridization techniques with a DNA clone designated L1.84.

Human RAD51 paralogue SWSAP1 fosters RAD51 filament by regulating the anti-recombinase FIGNL1 AAA+ ATPase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
RAD51 assembly on single-stranded DNAs is an important step in the homology-dependent repair of DNA damage. Here authors reveal a role for the human RAD51 paralogue, SWSAP1, as a regulator of RAD51 assembly, by antagonizing RAD51 remodeller, FIGNL1 AAA +

Role of the Number of Microtubules in Chromosome Segregation during Cell Division [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE 10(10): e0141305 (2015), 2015
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.

A global view of substrate phosphorylation and dephosphorylation during budding yeast mitotic exit

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2018
The cell cycle is the process by which a cell duplicates its DNA during S-phase and divides its chromosomes during M-phase, creating two genetically identical daughter cells.

Joint control of meiotic crossover patterning by the synaptonemal complex and HEI10 dosage

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
During meiosis, the number and distribution of crossovers (COs) are tightly controlled, but the mechanistic basis of this control is unclear. Here, by combining experimental data and mathematical modeling, the study advocates a CO patterning model via ...

Errors in chromosome segregation during oogenesis and early embryogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Errors in chromosome segregation occurring during human oogenesis and early embryogenesis are very common. Meiotic chromosome development during oogenesis is subdivided into three distinct phases.

ATR Activates the S-M Checkpoint during Unperturbed Growth to Ensure Sufficient Replication Prior to Mitotic Onset

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
Cells must accurately replicate and segregate their DNA once per cell cycle in order to successfully transmit genetic information. During S phase in the presence of agents that cause replication stress, ATR-dependent checkpoints regulate origin firing ...

Chromosome-level assemblies of multiple Arabidopsis genomes reveal hotspots of rearrangements with altered evolutionary dynamics

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Despite tremendous genomic resources in the Arabidopsis community, only a few whole genome de novo assemblies are available. Here, the authors report chromosome-level reference-quality assemblies of seven A.

Simultaneous loading of PCR-based multiple fragments on mouse artificial chromosome vectors in DT40 cell for gene delivery

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Homology-directed repair-mediated knock-in (HDR-KI) in combination with CRISPR-Cas9-mediated double strand break (DSB) leads to high frequency of site-specific HDR-KI. While this characteristic is advantageous for generating genetically modified cellular
