FEARless in Meiosis [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2003
Degradation of mitotic cyclins is critical for exit from mitosis. Recent studies in budding yeast address the role of cyclin degradation in meiosis. Cyclin stabilization in meiosis I interferes with anaphase I spindle disassembly but, surprisingly, does not halt progression into meiosis II.

A companion to the preclinical common data elements for rodent genetic epilepsy models. A report of the TASK3‐WG1B: Paediatric and genetic models working group of the ILAE/AES joint translational TASK force

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Rodent models of epilepsy remain the cornerstone of research into the mechanisms underlying genetic epilepsy. Reproducibility of experiments using these rodent models, occurring across a diversity of laboratories and commercial vendors, remains an issue impacting the cost‐effectiveness and scientific rigor of the studies performed.

Co-evolution of the mitotic and meiotic modes of eukaryotic cellular division [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E 98 (2018), 032409, 2018
The genetic material of a eukaryotic cell comprises both nuclear DNA (ncDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). These differ markedly in several aspects but nevertheless must encode proteins that are compatible with one another. Here we introduce a network model of the hypothetical co-evolution of the two most common modes of cellular division for ...

The meiosis-specific Cdc20 family-member Ama1 promotes binding of the Ssp2 activator to the Smk1 MAP kinase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Smk1 is a meiosis-specific MAP kinase (MAPK) in budding yeast that is required for spore formation. It is localized to prospore membranes (PSMs), the structures that engulf haploid cells during meiosis II (MII).

Cyclin A2 Is Required for Sister Chromatid Segregation, But Not Separase Control, in Mouse Oocyte Meiosis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
In meiosis, two specialized cell divisions allow the separation of paired chromosomes first, then of sister chromatids. Separase removes the cohesin complex holding sister chromatids together in a stepwise manner from chromosome arms in meiosis I, then ...

Dynamic Histone H3 Modifications Regulate Meiosis Initiation via Respiration

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Meiosis is essential for genetic stability and diversity during sexual reproduction in most eukaryotes. Chromatin structure and gene expression are drastically changed during meiosis, and various histone modifications have been reported to participate in

Chromosome segregation in plant meiosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Faithful chromosome segregation in meiosis is essential for ploidy stability over sexual life cycles. In plants, defective chromosome segregation caused by gene mutations or other factors leads to the formation of unbalanced or unreduced gametes creating

Spo13 prevents premature cohesin cleavage during meiosis [version 2; peer review: 2 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2019
Background: Meiosis produces gametes through two successive nuclear divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II. In contrast to mitosis and meiosis II, where sister chromatids are segregated, during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are segregated. This requires

The Cyclin B2/CDK1 Complex Conservatively Inhibits Separase Activity in Oocyte Meiosis II

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Recently, we have reported that the cyclin B2/CDK1 complex regulates homologous chromosome segregation through inhibiting separase activity in oocyte meiosis I, which further elucidates the compensation of cyclin B2 on cyclin B1’s function in meiosis I ...

Defining the developmental program leading to meiosis in maize

open access: yesScience, 2018
Following meiosis in maize Plants do not set aside a germ-cell lineage from early development as animals do, but instead generate germ cells on demand.
