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 ...

Chromosome Segregation: Reconstituting the Kinetochore [PDF]

Current Biology, 2016
Faithful chromosome segregation is accomplished by attachment of chromosomes to spindle microtubules using the kinetochore. In a major step forward in understanding the functional and structural complexity of kinetochores, a 21-subunit human centromere - kinetochore complex has been reconstituted entirely from purified components, recreating the ...

Aging Is a Key Driver for Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a classical age‐related hematologic malignancy, and a key driver of AML is aging, which profoundly regulates intrinsic factors such as genomic instability, epigenetic reprogramming, and metabolic dysregulation, and alters bone marrow microenvironment.

Evidence of substrate control of Cdk phosphorylation during the budding yeast cell cycle

Cell Reports
Summary: A series of sequential events orchestrates cell growth and division, set in motion by cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). In the “qualitative model” for Cdk control, order is achieved by cell cycle stage-specific cyclins.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.

Kinetochore component function in C. elegans oocytes revealed by 4D tracking of holocentric chromosomes

Nature Communications, 2023
During cell division, chromosome congression to the spindle center, their orientation along the spindle long axis and alignment at the metaphase plate depend on interactions between spindle microtubules and kinetochores, and are pre-requisite for ...

Chromosomal Instability Drives Glioblastoma Heterogeneity and Therapeutic Opportunities

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma, the most aggressive and lethal form of brain cancer, is defined by profound genomic instability, with Chromosomal Instability (CIN) playing a central role in driving tumor progression, therapy resistance, and poor prognosis. CIN is characterized by numerical and structural alterations, is driven by mechanisms such as mitotic ...

Non-random Mis-segregation of Human Chromosomes

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: A common assumption is that human chromosomes carry equal chances of mis-segregation during compromised cell division. Human chromosomes vary in multiple parameters that might generate bias, but technological limitations have precluded a ...

Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Spontaneous Multipolar Mitosis Through CIN‐seq

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multipolar mitosis, a hallmark of chromosomal instability (CIN), drives tumor heterogeneity but is challenging to study in live cells. Using CIN‐seq, a single‐cell multiomics method, we profiled rare CIN events and identified mechanisms associated with viable multipolar mitosis, including PTEN attenuation, Rho GTPase‐driven cytokinesis failure, and ...
