Non-random Mis-segregation of Human Chromosomes

open access: yesCell 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 ...

The microtubule cross-linker Feo controls the midzone stability, motor composition, and elongation of the anaphase B spindle in Drosophila embryos. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Chromosome segregation during anaphase depends on chromosome-to-pole motility and pole-to-pole separation. We propose that in Drosophila embryos, the latter process (anaphase B) depends on a persistent kinesin-5-generated interpolar (ip) microtubule (MT)

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 ...

Protocol for studying topological DNA interactions by purified fission yeast condensin

open access: yesSTAR Protocols
Summary: 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.

Random Chromosome Partitioning in the Polyploid Bacterium Thermus thermophilus HB27

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Little is known about chromosome segregation in polyploid prokaryotes. In this study, whether stringent or variable chromosome segregation occurs in polyploid thermophilic bacterium Thermus thermophilus was analyzed.

Mad2, Bub3, and Mps1 regulate chromosome segregation and mitotic synchrony in Giardia intestinalis, a binucleate protist lacking an anaphase-promoting complex. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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.

Plasma extrachromosomal circular DNA as a biomarker in EGFR‐targeted therapy of non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detection of extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) in plasma samples from EGFR‐mutated non‐small cell lung cancer patients. Plasma was collected before and during treatment with the EGFR‐tyrosine kinase inhibitor osimertinib. Plasma eccDNA was detected in all cancer samples, and the presence of the EGFR gene on eccDNA serves as a potential biomarker ...

Survivin and Aurora Kinase A control cell fate decisions during mitosis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aurora A interacts with survivin during mitosis and regulates its centromeric role. Loss of Aurora A activity mislocalises survivin, the CPC and BubR1, leading to disruption of the spindle checkpoint and triggering premature mitotic exit, which we refer to as ‘mitotic slippage’.

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

open access: yesCell 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.

Depletion or cleavage of cohesin during anaphase differentially affects chromatin structure and segregation

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Chromosome segregation requires both the separation of sister chromatids and the sustained condensation of chromatids during anaphase. In yeast cells, cohesin is not only required for sister chromatid cohesion but also plays a major role determining the ...
