SMC condensin entraps chromosomal DNA by an ATP hydrolysis dependent loading mechanism in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Smc–ScpAB forms elongated, annular structures that promote chromosome segregation, presumably by compacting and resolving sister DNA molecules. The mechanistic basis for its action, however, is only poorly understood. Here, we have established a physical

A conserved filamentous assembly underlies the structure of the meiotic chromosome axis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The meiotic chromosome axis plays key roles in meiotic chromosome organization and recombination, yet the underlying protein components of this structure are highly diverged.

Nuclear Organization and Chromosome Segregation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1999
The genetic information underlying plant form and function is contained within the cell nucleus in the form of complex, dynamic DNA–protein structures—the chromosomes. The faithful transmission of these structures during mitosis and meiosis requires extensive chromosome reorganization and ...

The architecture of chicken chromosome territories changes during differentiation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
BACKGROUND: Between cell divisions the chromatin fiber of each chromosome is restricted to a subvolume of the interphase cell nucleus called chromosome territory.

Chromosome Oscillations in Mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
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 ...

Organization of the bacterial chromosome [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1990
Recent progress in studies on the bacterial chromosome is summarized. Although the greatest amount of information comes from studies on Escherichia coli, reports on studies of many other bacteria are also included. A compilation of the sizes of chromosomal DNAs as determined by pulsed-field electrophoresis is given, as well as a discussion of factors ...

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mitotic spindles are self-organizing protein machines that harness teams of multiple force generators to drive chromosome segregation. Kinesins are key members of these force-generating teams.

The auxin-inducible degron 2 technology provides sharp degradation control in yeast, mammalian cells, and mice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Auxin-inducible degron systems can be leaky and require high doses of auxin. Here the authors establish AID2 which uses an OsTIR1 mutant and the ligand 5-Ph-IAA to overcome these problems and establish AID-mediated target depletion in mice.

VISUALIZING CHROMOSOME STRUCTURE/ORGANIZATION

open access: yesAnnual Review of Plant Biology, 2004
▪ Abstract  With the rapid development of sequencing technologies in the past decade, many eukaryotic genomes have been resolved at the primary sequence level. However, organization of the genome within nuclei and the principles that govern such properties remain largely unclear.
