Chromosome Number Reduction in Eremothecium coryli by Two Telomere-to-Telomere Fusions
The genus Eremothecium belongs to the Saccharomyces complex of pre-whole-genome duplication (WGD) yeasts and contains both dimorphic and filamentous species. We established the 9.1-Mb draft genome of Eremothecium coryli, which encodes 4,682 genes, 186 tRNA genes, and harbors several Ty3 transposons as well as more than 60 remnants of transposition events (LTRs). The initial de novo assembly res...
متن کاملTrapping Rap1 at the telomere to prevent chromosome end fusions.
The prevention of nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) reactions between chromosome ends is crucial for maintaining genome stability. Although this protective function is known to be fulfilled by a core of conserved telomeric proteins that are collectively known as Shelterin, its mechanistic details remain a mystery. In this issue, Sarthy et al (2009) lend fresh insight by developing an ingenious m...

متن کاملDicentric breakage at telomere fusions.
Nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) inhibition at telomeres ensures that native chromosome ends do not fuse together. But the occurrence and consequences of rare telomere fusions are not well understood. It is notably unclear whether a telomere fusion could be processed to restore telomere ends. Here we address the behavior of individual dicentrics formed by telomere fusion in the yeast Saccharomy...
متن کاملSpontaneous telomere to telomere fusions occur in unperturbed fission yeast cells
Telomeres protect eukaryotic chromosomes from illegitimate end-to-end fusions. When this function fails, dicentric chromosomes are formed, triggering breakage-fusion-bridge cycles and genome instability. How efficient is this protection mechanism in normal cells is not fully understood. We created a positive selection assay aimed at capturing chromosome-end fusions in Schizosaccharomyces pombe....
