M2 Macrophages are Major Mediators of Germline Risk of Endometriosis and Explain Pleiotropy With Comorbid Traits

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Genes associated with endometriosis risk are highly expressed in M2 macrophages, particularly ligands IL1A and IL1B. Endometrial‐type epithelium and stroma are likely recipients of these ligands. While IL1B treatment disturbs epithelial organization, blockage of the signaling results in a dose‐dependent decrease in spontanesous and evoked pain, reduces

Microneedle manipulation of the mammalian spindle reveals specialized, short-lived reinforcement near chromosomes

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The spindle generates force to segregate chromosomes at cell division. In mammalian cells, kinetochore-fibers connect chromosomes to the spindle. The dynamic spindle anchors kinetochore-fibers in space and time to move chromosomes.

Trypanosome outer kinetochore proteins suggest conservation of chromosome segregation machinery across eukaryotes

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2017
Kinetochores are multiprotein complexes that couple eukaryotic chromosomes to the mitotic spindle to ensure proper segregation. The model for kinetochore assembly is conserved between humans and yeast, and homologues of several components are widely ...

Kinetochore or Centromere? [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1939
IN his recent communication1, Dr. Mather seems to have no argument against the applicability of ‘kinetochore’. He sponsors “centromere” largely because it is used by a number of investigators. But I, for one, am not convinced that it is the “best term in use to-day”. To Dr. Mather ‘centromere’ may imply a visible particle, but to many it will connote a

One-two punch mechanism of gene repression: a fresh perspective on gene regulation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cellular differentiation depends on temporally controlled waves of gene activation and inactivation that ultimately transform one cell type into another.

SENP6 Maintains Mitochondrial Homeostasis by Regulating Mitochondrial Protein Import Through deSUMOylation of TOM40

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SUMOylation regulates mitochondrial processes, but its impact on protein import remains unclear. TOM40 is identified, a mitochondrial outer membrane channel protein, as a substrate of deSUMOylase SENP6. TOM40 SUMOylation disrupts outer membrane complex assembly, inhibits protein import, and compromises mitochondrial homeostasis.

Ordered Kinetochore Assembly in the Human-Pathogenic Basidiomycetous Yeast Cryptococcus neoformans

open access: yesmBio, 2013
Kinetochores facilitate interaction between chromosomes and the spindle apparatus. The formation of a metazoan trilayered kinetochore is an ordered event in which inner, middle, and outer layers assemble during disassembly of the nuclear envelope during ...

Mechanisms of kinetochore‐microtubule attachment errors in mammalian oocytes

open access: yesDevelopment, Growth and Differentiation, 2018
Proper kinetochore‐microtubule attachment is essential for correct chromosome segregation. Therefore, cells normally possess multiple mechanisms for the prevention of errors in kinetochore‐microtubule attachments and for selective stabilization of ...

T2T Genomes Unveil Centromere Architecture and Adaptive Divergence in Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea)

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents telomere‐to‐telomere genome assemblies for two populations of Larimichthys crocea. We identified centromere‐specific tandem repeats invaded by LTR/ERV1 retrotransposons, unique 5S rRNA enrichment patterns, and population‐specific structural variants. Comparative genomic analyses further reveal distinct adaptive mechanisms in the MYD

Stage‐Resolved Phosphoproteomic Landscape of Mouse Spermiogenesis Reveals Key Kinase Signaling in Sperm Morphogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling reveals dynamic phosphorylation regulation of sperm morphogenesis. Kinase‐substrate phosphorylation network and phosphorylation module analysis, followed by in vivo knockdown and knockout analysis, identify TTBK2 and CSNK1G1 as key regulators of morphogenesis, including head, flagellar, and ...
