Long-term mitotic DNA damage promotes chromokinesin-mediated missegregation of polar chromosomes in cancer cells

M. Novais-Cruz, A. Pombinho, M. Sousa, A. F. Maia, H. Maiato, C. Ferras

The paper shows that long-term mitotic DNA damage in cancer cells leads to chromokinesin-mediated missegregation of polar chromosomes via stabilized kinetochore-microtubule attachments.

Misaligned chromosomes that satisfy the spindle assembly checkpoint are a strong predictor of micronuclei formation in dividing cancer cells

A. M. Gomes, B. Orr, M. Novais-Cruz, F. De Sousa, C. Ferras, H. Maiato

The paper shows that chronically misaligned chromosomes satisfying the SAC predict micronuclei formation in cancer cells but not in normal cells.

Coherent-hybrid STED: a tunable photo-physical pinhole for super-resolution imaging at high contrast

A. J. Pereira, M. Sousa, A. C. Almeida, L. T. Ferreira, A. R. Costa, M. Novais-Cruz, C. Ferras, M. M. Sousa, P. Sampaio, M. Belsley, H. Maiato

This paper introduces CH-STED, a super-resolution imaging technique that improves optical sectioning and reduces background fluorescence for high-contrast imaging of biological structures.

Mitotic progression, arrest, exit or death is determined by centromere integrity and independent of de novo transcription

M. Cruz, M. Alba Fernandez, W. van Ijcken, N. Galjart, A. J. Arulanandam, H. Maiato, C. Ferras

This study investigates the role of de novo transcription during mitosis and finds that centromere integrity, not transcription, determines mitotic progression, arrest, exit, or death.
