FISH-aimed karyotype analysis in Aconitum subgen : aconitum reveals excessive rDNA sites in tetraploid taxa [PDF]
The location of 5S and 35S rDNA sequences in chromosomes of four Aconitum subsp. Aconitum species was analyzed after fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Both in diploids (2n = 2x = 16; Aconitum variegatum, A. degenii) and tetraploids (2n = 4× = 32;

Ring-like distribution of constitutive heterochromatin in bovine senescent cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cells that reach "Hayflick limit" of proliferation, known as senescent cells, possess a particular type of nuclear architecture. Human senescent cells are characterized by the presence of highly condensed senescent associated heterochromatin ...

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

ZKSCAN3 counteracts cellular senescence by stabilizing heterochromatin
Zinc finger protein with KRAB and SCAN domains 3 (ZKSCAN3) has long been known as a master transcriptional repressor of autophagy. Here, we identify a novel role for ZKSCAN3 in alleviating senescence that is independent of its autophagy-related activity.

Cytological features of penaut genome [PDF]
The genus Arachis is composed of 82 species (Krapovickas and Gregory 1994; Valls and Simpson 2005; Valls et al 2013; Santana and Valls 2015) mainly distributed within a large region of South America, which extends from the eastern foothills of the Andes ...

A Modular and Customizable CRISPR/Cas Toolkit for Epigenome Editing of Cis‐regulatory Modules
Epigenome editing surpasses genome editing in gene regulation. Modular epigenome editing frameworks are developed to interrogate cis‐regulome, enabling tunable reprogramming of cis‐elements, uncovering their epigenetic responsiveness and cross‐species portability.

Heterochromatin anomalies and double-stranded RNA accumulation underlie C9orf72 poly(PR) toxicity
How dipeptide repeats cause pathology A repeat expansion in the chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72) gene is the most common known cause of two neurodegenerative diseases: frontotemporal dementia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Investigation of marmoset hybrids (Cebuella pygmaea x Callithrix jacchus) and related Callitrichinae (Platyrrhini) by cross-species chromosome painting and comparative genomic hybridization [PDF]
We report on the cytogenetics of twin offspring from an interspecies cross in marmosets (Callitrichinae, Platyrrhini), resulting from a pairing between a female Common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus, 2n = 46) and a male Pygmy marmoset (Cebuella pygmaea, 2n

A novel chromatin‐labeling probe is developed to investigate chromatin mobility during differentiation. The silicon rhodamine–conjugated dCTP is efficiently delivered into iPSCs and NSCs using a synthetic transporter. Super‐resolution microscopy and single‐particle tracking show decreased chromatin mobility during differentiation.
