Chromosome segregation analysis in human embryos obtained from couples involving male carriers of reciprocal or Robertsonian translocation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The objective of this study was to investigate the frequency and type of chromosome segregation patterns in cleavage stage embryos obtained from male carriers of Robertsonian (ROB) and reciprocal (REC) translocations undergoing preimplantation genetic ...

Chromosome segregation in lymphocyte hybrids [PDF]
Hereditas, 2009 Chromosome segregation was studied in mouse/human and mouse/mouse T-lymphocyte hybrids, and in mouse/human, mouse/rabbit and mouse/rat B-lymphocyte hybrids. Chromosome loss was not random, it was moderate in mouse/mouse and mouse/rat lymphocyte hybrids, but extensive in mouse/human and mouse/rabbit lymphocyte hybrids.

Resolving Chromosome Segregation in Bacteria
Microbial Physiology, 2006 Bacterial chromosomes are evenly distributed between daughter cells, however no equivalent eukaryotic mitotic apparatus has been identified yet. Nevertheless, an advance in our understanding of the dynamics of the bacterial chromosome has been accomplished in recent years by adopting fluorescence microscopy techniques to visualize living bacterial ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Segregation but Not Replication of the
mBio, 2018 Coordination between chromosome replication and segregation is essential for equal partitioning of genetic material between daughter cells. In bacteria, this is achieved through the proximity of the origin of replication, oriC, and the chromosome ...

MITF maintains genome stability in nonmelanocyte lineages
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.MITF is essential for melanocyte survival and acts as an oncogene in 10%–20% of melanomas. We show that MITF depletion causes genome instability in nonmelanocytic cells, leading to LATS2‐mediated P53 activation, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis. This study highlights the role of MITF as a genome maintenance factor beyond the melanocyte lineage. Created

EMBO ReportsBipolar spindle assembly and chromosome biorientation are prerequisites for chromosome segregation during cell division. The kinesin motor KIF11 (also widely known as Eg5) drives spindle bipolarization by sliding antiparallel microtubules bidirectionally,

Protocol for studying topological DNA interactions by purified fission yeast condensin
STAR ProtocolsSummary: To understand the transition from interphase chromatin into well-shaped chromosomes during cell divisions, we need to understand the biochemical activities of the contributing proteins.

A simple biophysical model emulates budding yeast chromosome condensation
eLife, 2015 Mitotic chromosomes were one of the first cell biological structures to be described, yet their molecular architecture remains poorly understood. We have devised a simple biophysical model of a 300 kb-long nucleosome chain, the size of a budding yeast ...

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)
