Principles of meiotic chromosome assembly revealed in S. cerevisiae [PDF]
During meiotic prophase, chromosomes organise into a series of chromatin loops emanating from a proteinaceous axis, but the mechanisms of assembly remain unclear.

Are There Knots in Chromosomes?
Recent developments have for the first time allowed the determination of three-dimensional structures of individual chromosomes and genomes in nuclei of single haploid mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells based on Hi–C chromosome conformation contact data. Although these first structures have a relatively low resolution, they provide the first experimental ...

Cdt1 stabilizes an open MCM ring for helicase loading
The loading and activation of the Mcm2-7 replicative helicase couples cell cycle progression to DNA replication. Here the authors use X-ray crystallography and single-particle electron microscopy to demonstrate how Ctd1 functions to promote MCM loading ...

Using Orientation to Distinguish Overlapping Chromosomes [PDF]
A difficult step in the process of karyotyping is segmenting chromosomes that touch or overlap. In an attempt to automate the process, previous studies turned to Deep Learning methods, with some formulating the task as a semantic segmentation problem. These models treat separate chromosome instances as semantic classes, which we show to be problematic,

The origin of human chromosome 2 analyzed by comparative chromosome mapping with a DNA microlibrary [PDF]
Fluorescencein situ hybridization (FISH) of microlibraries established from distinct chromosome subregions can test the evolutionary conservation of chromosome bands as well as chromosomal rearrangements that occurred during primate evolution and will ...

Recent advances in our understanding of chromosome behavior have been made possible by the development of cutting-edge cytological and molecular techniques. Presentations in this Minisymposium applied these techniques to a diverse set of topics. Sarah Elgin (Washington University) described her lab’s studies on the 1360 transposable element in ...

Functional crosstalk between the cohesin loader and chromatin remodelers
Chromatin remodelers direct the cohesin loader to nucleosome depleted regions where cohesin accesses chromosomes. Muñoz et al. now show that the cohesin loader in turn is a biochemical activator of a chromatin remodeler, helping to clear ...

Where and when to start: Regulating DNA replication origin activity in eukaryotic genomes
In eukaryotic genomes, hundreds to thousands of potential start sites of DNA replication named origins are dispersed across each of the linear chromosomes.

AutoKary2022: A Large-Scale Densely Annotated Dataset for Chromosome Instance Segmentation [PDF]
Automated chromosome instance segmentation from metaphase cell microscopic images is critical for the diagnosis of chromosomal disorders (i.e., karyotype analysis). However, it is still a challenging task due to lacking of densely annotated datasets and the complicated morphologies of chromosomes, e.g., dense distribution, arbitrary orientations, and ...
