Researchers have made a surprising new discovery in the structure of the centromere, a structure that is involved in ensuring that chromosomes are segregated properly when a cell divides. Mistakes in ...

Here, we describe the cloning and characterization of ScII, the second most abundant protein after topoisomerase II, of the chromosome scaffold fraction to be identified. ScII is structurally related ...

A long-standing question in eukaryotic cell biology and genomics is whether the interphase chromatin fibre has a foundational geometric structure — or at least one that persists over some longitudinal ...
