Bacterial Chromosome Organization and Segregation [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2010
Bacterial chromosomes are generally approximately 1000 times longer than the cells in which they reside, and concurrent replication, segregation, and transcription/translation of this crowded mass of DNA poses a challenging organizational problem. Recent advances in cell-imaging technology with subdiffraction resolution have revealed that the bacterial

Telomere disruption results in non-random formation of de novo dicentric chromosomes involving acrocentric human chromosomes [PDF]

, 2010
Copyright: © 2010 Stimpson et al.Genome rearrangement often produces chromosomes with two centromeres (dicentrics) that are inherently unstable because of bridge formation and breakage during cell division. However, mammalian dicentrics, and particularly

Replisome Assembly at Bacterial Chromosomes and Iteron Plasmids

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2016

Bacterial chromosome segregation

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2012
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

Karyotyping human chromosomes by optical and X-ray ptychography methods [PDF]

, 2014
Sorting and identifying chromosomes, a process known as karyotyping, is widely used to detect changes in chromosome shapes and gene positions. In a karyotype the chromosomes are identified by their size and therefore this process can be performed by ...

Stretching the Rules: Monocentric Chromosomes with Multiple Centromere Domains [PDF]

, 2012
The centromere is a functional chromosome domain that is essential for faithful chromosome segregation during cell division and that can be reliably identified by the presence of the centromere-specific histone H3 variant CenH3.

Bacteria spring a surprise [PDF]

, 2014
Cell division involves the precise duplication of all the genetic material in the cell—both the chromosomes and the plasmid DNA—and the equal division of this material between the two daughter cells.

Molecular basis for SMC rod formation and its dissolution upon DNA binding. [PDF]

, 2015
SMC condensin complexes are central modulators of chromosome superstructure in all branches of life. Their SMC subunits form a long intramolecular coiled coil, which connects a constitutive "hinge" dimerization domain with an ATP-regulated "head ...

Non-random chromosome positioning in mammalian sperm nuclei, with migration of the sex chromosomes during late spermatogenesis. [PDF]

, 2005
Chromosomes are highly organized and compartmentalized in cell nuclei. The analysis of their position is a powerful way to monitor genome organization in different cell types and states.

Modeling meiotic chromosomes indicates a size dependent contribution of telomere clustering and chromosome rigidity to homologue juxtaposition [PDF]

, 2012
Meiosis is the cell division that halves the genetic component of diploid cells to form gametes or spores. To achieve this, meiotic cells undergo a radical spatial reorganisation of chromosomes.
