Chromosome cohesion in mitosis and meiosis.
During mitosis and meiosis sister chromatids are held together by protein complexes. This cohesion is important not only for pairwise alignment of chromosomes on the mitotic spindle but also for the generation of tension across centromeres – it counteracts the pulling force of spindle microtubules, which ensures the bipolar attachment of chromosomes. Chromosome cohesion thus enables accurate ch...
متن کاملRegulatory Control of the Resolution of DNA Recombination Intermediates during Meiosis and Mitosis
The efficient and timely resolution of DNA recombination intermediates is essential for bipolar chromosome segregation. Here, we show that the specialized chromosome segregation patterns of meiosis and mitosis, which require the coordination of recombination with cell-cycle progression, are achieved by regulating the timing of activation of two crossover-promoting endonucleases. In yeast meiosi...
متن کاملC. elegans condensin promotes mitotic chromosome architecture, centromere organization, and sister chromatid segregation during mitosis and meiosis.
Chromosome segregation and X-chromosome gene regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans share the component MIX-1, a mitotic protein that also represses X-linked genes during dosage compensation. MIX-1 achieves its dual roles through interactions with different protein partners. To repress gene expression, MIX-1 acts in an X-chromosome complex that resembles the mitotic condensin complex yet lacks ch...
متن کاملMeiosis: an overview of key differences from mitosis.
Meiosis is the specialized cell division that generates gametes. In contrast to mitosis, molecular mechanisms and regulation of meiosis are much less understood. Meiosis shares mechanisms and regulation with mitosis in many aspects, but also has critical differences from mitosis. This review highlights these differences between meiosis and mitosis. Recent studies using various model systems rev...
متن کاملMeiosis I chromosome segregation is established through regulation of microtubule–kinetochore interactions
During meiosis, a single round of DNA replication is followed by two consecutive rounds of nuclear divisions called meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes segregate, while sister chromatids remain together. Determining how this unusual chromosome segregation behavior is established is central to understanding germ cell development. Here we show that preventing microtubul...
