Dynamics of chromosome positioning during the cell cycle.

Abstract:

:The arrangement and dynamics of chromosomes inside the nucleus of mammalian cells have been studied intensively over the last two years. Although chromosomes are relatively immobile and occupy non-random positions in interphase, their dynamic movements in mitosis have traditionally been assumed to randomize this arrangement. New methods of live cell imaging now make it possible to follow chromosome movements directly and quantitatively in single cells. Such studies have generated models of chromosome positioning throughout the cell cycle and provide a new basis to address the underlying mechanisms in future experiments.

  • Centriole continuity: out with the new, in with the old.

    abstract::Centrioles are essential microtubule-based organelles, typically present in pairs, which organize cilia and centrosomes. Their mode of biogenesis is unique for a subcellular organelle since, during cell division, each pre-existing centriole guides the formation of a new one, a process that is coordinated with DNA repl...
