The dynamics of signal amplification by macromolecular assemblies for the control of chromosome segregation [PDF]
The control of chromosome segregation relies on the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), a complex regulatory system that ensures the high fidelity of chromosome segregation in higher organisms by delaying the onset of anaphase until each chromosome is ...

High‐Throughput Tiling of Essential mRNAs Increases Potency of Antisense Antibiotics
The systematic tiling of essential genes’ mRNA here presented, proposes a valuable tool for the identification of novel PNA sequences with antibiotic potential. The high‐throughput synthetic set up opens the door to investigating thousands of sequences in an economic way and ultimately identifies potent antisense oligonucleotides while also giving room

Cdc14 and PP2A Phosphatases Cooperate to Shape Phosphoproteome Dynamics during Mitotic Exit
Summary: Temporal control over protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation is crucial for accurate chromosome segregation and for completion of the cell division cycle during exit from mitosis. In budding yeast, the Cdc14 phosphatase is thought to be a

Vibrio cholerae has two chromosomes (chrI and chrII) whose replication and segregation are under different genetic controls. The region covering the replication origin of chrI resembles that of the Escherichia coli chromosome, and both origins are under ...

Finding the middle ground: how kinetochores power chromosome congression [PDF]
Genomic stability requires error-free chromosome segregation during mitosis. Chromosome congression to the spindle equator precedes chromosome segregation in anaphase and is a hallmark of metazoan mitosis.

Mitigating Cell Cycle Effects in Multi‐Omics Data: Solutions and Analytical Frameworks
The study highlights the cell‐cycle effects on multi‐omics analysis attributed to varying cell cycle compositions across cell types. To minimize the influence, we propose RTD correction in CNV calling with a high S‐phase ratio, and phase comparison in chromatin accessibility, DNA methylation, and transcriptomics.

Loop-extruders alter bacterial chromosome topology to direct entropic forces for segregation
Entropic forces have been argued to drive bacterial chromosome segregation during replication. In many bacterial species, however, specifically evolved mechanisms, such as loop-extruding SMC complexes and the ParABS origin segregation system, contribute ...

HIM-10 is required for kinetochore structure and function on Caenorhabditis elegans holocentric chromosomes. [PDF]
Macromolecular structures called kinetochores attach and move chromosomes within the spindle during chromosome segregation. Using electron microscopy, we identified a structure on the holocentric mitotic and meiotic chromosomes of Caenorhabditis elegans ...

ABSTRACT Prenatal and neonatal presentations of multiple congenital anomalies are difficult to diagnose and are associated with an increased risk of lethality. The differential diagnosis of antenatal presentations of radial ray malformations includes Fanconi anemia (FA), an inherited bone marrow failure disorder associated with congenital anomalies in ...

Mad2, Bub3, and Mps1 regulate chromosome segregation and mitotic synchrony in Giardia intestinalis, a binucleate protist lacking an anaphase-promoting complex. [PDF]
The binucleate pathogen Giardia intestinalis is a highly divergent eukaryote with a semiopen mitosis, lacking an anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) and many of the mitotic checkpoint complex (MCC) proteins.
