Insight Into Body Size Evolution in Aves: Based on Some Body Size‐Related Genes

Integrative Zoology, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1124-1135, November 2025.
These findings provide new insights into the genetic determinants of body size evolutionary mechanisms in Aves. ABSTRACT Birds exhibit remarkable variations in body size, making them an ideal group for the study of adaptive evolution. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying body size evolution in avian species remain inadequately understood.

A CRISPR‐Cas9‐based system for the dose‐dependent study of DNA double‐strand break sensing and repair

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 21, Page 5629-5658, November 2025.
Using CRISPR‐Cas9, we engineered a genetic system allowing the dose‐dependent induction of a controllable number of DNA double‐strand breaks in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The tool was used to study the kinetics of DNA break sensing and repair, including the spatial distribution of Tel1ATM kinase, which initiates the DNA damage response.

The ABCs of SMC proteins: two-armed ATPases for chromosome condensation, cohesion and repair [PDF]

, 2002
The first draft of the human genome sequence was reported a year ago. It may be a good time to remind ourselves that the genetic information encoded in the ∼3000-Mb sequence is stored not only in the public or private databases but also in the tiny space

DNA content of a functioning chicken kinetochore [PDF]

, 2014
© The Author(s) 2014. In order to understand the three-dimensional structure of the functional kinetochore in vertebrates, we require a complete list and stoichiometry for the protein components of the kinetochore, which can be provided by genetic and ...

Differential Contributions of Condensin I and Condensin II to Mitotic Chromosome Architecture in Vertebrate Cells [PDF]

Cell, 2003
The canonical condensin complex (henceforth condensin I) plays an essential role in mitotic chromosome assembly and segregation from yeast to humans. We report here the identification of a second condensin complex (condensin II) from vertebrate cells.

Release of condensin from mitotic chromosomes requires the Ran-GTP gradient in the reorganized nucleus

Biology Open, 2017
After mitosis, nuclear reorganization occurs together with decondensation of mitotic chromosomes and reformation of the nuclear envelope, thereby restoring the Ran-GTP gradient between the nucleus and cytoplasm.

Modeling of DNA binding to the condensin hinge domain using molecular dynamics simulations guided by atomic force microscopy.

PLoS Computational Biology, 2021
The condensin protein complex compacts chromatin during mitosis using its DNA-loop extrusion activity. Previous studies proposed scrunching and loop-capture models as molecular mechanisms for the loop extrusion process, both of which assume the binding ...

Condensin-mediated chromosome organization and gene regulation [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2015
In many organisms sexual fate is determined by a chromosome-based method which entails a difference in sex chromosome-linked gene dosage. Consequently, a gene regulatory mechanism called dosage compensation equalizes X-linked gene expression between the sexes. Dosage compensation initiates as cells transition from pluripotency to differentiation.

Single‐Step Genome‐Wide Association Study of Factors for Evaluated and Linearly Scored Traits in Swedish Warmblood Horses

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Volume 142, Issue 5, Page 499-512, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Swedish Warmblood horses (SWB) are bred for show jumping and/or dressage with young horse test scores as indicator traits. This study aimed to investigate possible candidate genes and regions of importance for evaluated and linearly scored young horse test traits.
