Unified theory of human genome reveals a constrained spatial chromosomal arrangement in interphase nuclei [PDF]
We investigate a densely packed, non-random arrangement of forty-six chromosomes (46,XY) in human nuclei. Here, we model systems-level chromosomal crosstalk by unifying intrinsic parameters (chromosomal length and number of genes) across all pairs of chromosomes in the genome to derive an extrinsic parameter called effective gene density.

Chromosomal in situ suppression hybridization of human gonosomes and autosomes and its use in clinical cytogenetics [PDF]
DNA libraries from sorted human gonosomes were used selectively to stain the X and Y chromosomes in normal and aberrant cultured human cells by chromosomal in situ suppression (CISS-) hybridization.

Oocyte meiosis must achieve spindle bipolarization without predefined spatial cues. Yoshida et al. demonstrate that spindle bipolarization during meiosis I in mouse oocytes requires kinetochores to prevent chromosome segregation errors, a phenomenon that

Chromosome assignment of two cloned DNA probes hybridizing predominantly to human sex chromosomes [PDF]
In situ hybridization experiments were carried out with two clones, YACG 35 and 2.8, which had been selected from two genomic libraries strongly enriched for the human Y chromosome.

Chromosomics: Bridging the Gap between Genomes and Chromosomes [PDF]
The recent advances in DNA sequencing technology are enabling a rapid increase in the number of genomes being sequenced. However, many fundamental questions in genome biology remain unanswered, because sequence data alone is unable to provide insight into how the genome is organised into chromosomes, the position and interaction of those chromosomes in

Intra-Chromosomal Potentials from Nucleosomal Positioning Data [PDF]
No systematic method exists to derive intra-chromosomal potentials between nucleosomes along a chromosome consistently across a given genome. Such potentials can yield information on nucleosomal ordering, thermal as well as mechanical properties of chromosomes.

Metabolic impact of sex chromosomes. [PDF]
Obesity and associated metabolic diseases are sexually dimorphic. To provide better diagnosis and treatment for both sexes, it is of interest to identify the factors that underlie male/female differences in obesity.

A Robust Framework of Chromosome Straightening with ViT-Patch GAN [PDF]
Chromosomes carry the genetic information of humans. They exhibit non-rigid and non-articulated nature with varying degrees of curvature. Chromosome straightening is an important step for subsequent karyotype construction, pathological diagnosis and cytogenetic map development.

Accurate chromosome segregation by probabilistic self-organization [PDF]
Background: For faithful chromosome segregation during cell division, correct attachments must be established between sister chromosomes and microtubules from opposite spindle poles through kinetochores (chromosome bi-orientation). Incorrect attachments of kinetochore microtubules (kMTs) lead to chromosome mis-segregation and aneuploidy, which is often

Large chromosomal structural variations between M. acuminata and M balbisiana and their consequences on chromosome recombination and segregation in a AAAB polyploidy context [PDF]
Many banana cultivars are triploid interspecific hybrids between M. acuminata (Genome A, 2n=22) and M. balbisiana (Genome B, 2n=22). They included the important group of Plantain cooking bananas classified as AAB.
