Meiosis: Making a Synaptonemal Complex Just Got Easier
In preparation for meiosis, chromosomes go through several massive structural transitions, including chromosome fragmentation, pairing and synapsis. A checkpoint factor and a SUMO ligase collaborate to keep things in order.
متن کاملBreaking Up Just Got Easier to Do
The SLX4 protein functions as a platform for catalytic subunits of structure-specific endonucleases. Findings reported in Cell (Fekairi et al., 2009; Svendsen et al., 2009) and in Molecular Cell (Andersen et al., 2009; Muñoz et al., 2009) now identify the human SLX4 and show that in association with the SLX1 endonuclease it directs the symmetric cleavage and resolution of Holliday junctions.
متن کاملHapZipper: sharing HapMap populations just got easier
The rapidly growing amount of genomic sequence data being generated and made publicly available necessitate the development of new data storage and archiving methods. The vast amount of data being shared and manipulated also create new challenges for network resources. Thus, developing advanced data compression techniques is becoming an integral part of data production and analysis. The HapMap ...
متن کاملMeiosis in Mice without a Synaptonemal Complex
The synaptonemal complex (SC) promotes fusion of the homologous chromosomes (synapsis) and crossover recombination events during meiosis. The SC displays an extensive structural conservation between species; however, a few organisms lack SC and execute meiotic process in a SC-independent manner. To clarify the SC function in mammals, we have generated a mutant mouse strain (Sycp1(-/-)Sycp3(-/-)...
متن کاملAML cytogenetics: the complex just got simpler.
In this issue of Blood, Middeke et al, for the well-regarded Cooperative German Study Group, report a retrospective analysis in which they demonstrate that a hierarchial classification system for specific cytogenetic abnormalities in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) reveals that patients with abnormal 17p [abnl(17p)] and -5/5q- abnormalities have worse outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic cell t...
