Ectopic A-lattice seams destabilize microtubules [PDF]
Natural microtubules typically include one A-lattice seam within an otherwise helically symmetric B-lattice tube. It is currently unclear how A-lattice seams influence microtubule dynamic instability.

ABSTRACT Botrytis cinerea, the necrotrophic fungus responsible for grey mould disease, is a major threat to global crop production. Control strategies mainly rely on chemical fungicides, but resistance development limits their long‐term effectiveness. This study introduces, for the first time in crop protection, the use of DNA aptamers as a novel and ...

Checkpoint-Dependent Regulation of Origin Firing and Replication Fork Movement in Response to DNA Damage in Fission Yeast [PDF]
To elucidate the checkpoint mechanism responsible for slowing passage through S phase when fission yeast cells are treated with the DNA-damaging agent methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), we carried out two-dimensional gel analyses of replication intermediates

Mitotic Phosphorylation of Swi6/HP1 Regulates Its Chromatin Binding and Chromosome Segregation
Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) plays an important role in heterochromatin assembly. HP1 proteins undergo additional phosphorylation during mitosis. However, the functional significance of the mitotic phosphorylation of HP1 remains unclear. We identified mitotic phosphorylation sites within fission yeast Swi6 and showed that this phosphorylation is ...

ABSTRACT Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process involved in maintaining homeostasis and in the degradation of damaged organelles and external pathogens. Nature provides complex and varied reservoirs of scaffolds and chemical entities that may have a pivotal role in the search for new therapeutic leads.

The centromeric sequences of Ogataea polymorpha, a methylotrophic non‐conventional yeast, were characterised for the first time and support the development of new genetically stable centromeric plasmids with high genetic stability and compatibility, providing powerful genetic toolboxes for the synthetic biology and metabolic engineering‐driven ...

Different telomere functions show distinct dependence on Rap1 protein levels revealed by analyses of pre‐mRNA splicing mutants. ABSTRACT Telomeres perform multiple functions to maintain genome stability, including telomere length regulation, chromosome end protection, and meiotic chromosome dynamics.

ABSTRACT Parasites are expected to hybridise in similar ways to free‐living organisms, although this may be modified by their reduced genome architecture. Recombinant strains and taxa of hybrid origin can be studied in nature where hosts come into secondary contact. Here we apply genome‐wide analysis to parasites from a contact previously characterised
