The role of CSE1L expression in cervical lymph node metastasis of larynx tumors
Introduction: According to international reports, 30–40% of all head and neck cancers are larynx cancers, comprising 1–2.5% of all cancer types. Cervical nodal involvement has been reported to be 40% and 65% in T3 and T4 cases, respectively.

CHROMOSOME SEGREGATION MECHANISMS [PDF]
ABSTRACT Most aspects of chromosome distribution to the daughter cells in meiosis and mitosis are now understood, at the cellular level. The most striking evidence that the proposed explanation is valid is that it correctly predicts the outcome of experiments on living cells in which the experimenter (1) can determine the distribution of

Chromosome Segregation: Correcting Improperly Attached Chromosomes [PDF]
Two new studies show that Aurora B kinase corrects improperly attached chromosomes by recruiting molecules necessary for eliminating the bad attachments and by regulating the turnover of the kinetochore fiber.

Prime movers : mechanochemistry of mitotic kinesins [PDF]
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.

Chromosome segregation in Eubacteria [PDF]
It is now clear that bacterial chromosomes rapidly separate in a manner independent of cell elongation, suggesting the existence of a mitotic apparatus in bacteria. Recent studies of bacterial cells reveal filamentous structures similar to the eukaryotic cytoskeleton, proteins that mediate polar chromosome anchoring during Bacillus subtilis sporulation,

Structure of the cohesin loader Scc2
The cohesin complex maintains genome integrity by ensuring correct sister-chromatid segregation during mitosis and meiosis. Here, Chaoet al. present a pseudo-atomic model of the full-length Scc2–Scc4 cohesin loader complex and reveal key Scc2 surfaces ...

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

Bacterial chromosome segregation
Dividing cells have mechanisms to ensure that their genomes are faithfully segregated into daughter cells. In bacteria, the description of these mechanisms has been considerably improved in the recent years. This review focuses on the different aspects of bacterial chromosome segregation that can be understood thanks to the studies performed with model

The Drosophila histone variant H2A.V works in concert with HP1 to promote kinetochore-driven microtubule formation [PDF]
Unlike other organisms that have evolved distinct H2A variants for different functions, Drosophila melanogaster has just one variant which is capable of filling many roles.

Chromosome Segregation Is Biased by Kinetochore Size [PDF]
Chromosome missegregation during mitosis or meiosis is a hallmark of cancer and the main cause of prenatal death in humans. The gain or loss of specific chromosomes is thought to be random, with cell viability being essentially determined by selection ...
