PDHA2, a testis‐specific subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase, is required for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl‐CoA. Its absence results in decreased acetyl‐CoA and precursors for metabolites and energy during spermatogenesis. This results in decreased histone acetylation, defective chromosome structure and moderately reduced crossovers, ultimately ...

On the possibility of yet a third kinetochore system in the protist phylum Euglenozoa
Transmission of genetic material from one generation to the next is a fundamental feature of all living cells. In eukaryotes, a macromolecular complex called the kinetochore plays crucial roles during chromosome segregation by linking chromosomes to ...

Active nucleoli have the capability to release perinuclear heterochromatin, which is a novel event of iPSC reprogramming. ABSTRACT Ribosome biogenesis occurs within the nucleolus, with the initial step being the transcription of ribosomal DNA (rDNA). Although rDNA transcription is limited in somatic cells, it is more active in stem cells. Nevertheless,

Mesenchymal stem cell‐mediated mitochondrial transfer regulates the fate of B lymphocytes
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) modulate immune responses by transferring mitochondria to immune cells, including B lymphocytes. This study demonstrates that mitochondrial transfer to CD19+ cells is linked to reactive oxygen species levels, mitophagy and activation. Mitochondria acquisition enhances B cell viability and proliferation while downregulating

Stress‐inducible phosphoprotein 1 (Sti1/Stip1/Hop) sequesters misfolded proteins during stress
Stress‐inducible phosphoprotein 1 (Sti1/Stip1/Hop) is a major co‐chaperone to both Hsp90 and Hsp70. We find that misbalanced expression of Sti1 in yeast and mammalian cells causes severe growth defects. Deletion of STI1 causes an accumulation of soluble misfolded ubiquitinated proteins and a strong activation of the heat shock response.

We show that Mub1 links cell wall robustness with the ubiquitin‐proteasome system. As an adaptor protein of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Ubr2, it facilitates the ubiquitination of various transcription factors, including Mcm1 and Swi4. Yeasts evolved a complex regulatory programme to build and maintain their cell wall, the primary structure through which ...
