This paper shows MeCP2 binds methylated DNA without needing phase separation or heterochromatin, and its foci are rare in most mammals.

This study shows that loss of Sgo2 at the pericentromere bridge in aging human oocytes weakens sister chromatid cohesion, contributing to aneuploidy.

The paper shows that nuclear spatial organization, particularly near spindle-pole bodies, influences centromere identity by facilitating CENP-ACnp1 incorporation.

This study identifies the molecular mechanism of CPC-Sgo1 interaction and shows its role in centromere localization and function through structural and functional analyses.

This study identifies a microtubule-independent mechanism for nuclear movement in fission yeast, showing it depends on actin cables and VAP proteins.

The paper uses proteomics to identify meiosis-specific kinetochore remodelling and reveals the essential role of the Ctf19cCCAN complex in meiotic kinetochore assembly.

This study identifies SUMOylation as a mechanism that stabilizes sister kinetochore biorientation by modulating Aurora B kinase and PP2A interactions.

This study identifies Borealin as the key mediator of Chromosomal Passenger Complex (CPC) chromosome association through direct nucleosome binding, revealing its critical role in chromosome segregation.

This study reveals the 3D structure of budding yeast pericentromeres and shows how convergent genes and cohesin positioning influence chromosome segregation.

This study shows that Spo13 prevents premature cohesin cleavage during meiosis I by blocking separase-dependent Rec8 loss at centromeres.
