    Atypical meiosis can be adaptive in outcrossed Schizosaccharomyces pombe due to wtf meiotic drivers

    María Angélica Bravo Núñez, Ibrahim M Sabbarini ... Sarah E Zanders
    The wtf meiotic drivers change the fitness landscape of meiosis in outcrossed Schizosaccharomyces pombe demonstrating that genetic parasites can favor the evolution of variants that disrupt meiotic fidelity.

    Chromosome mis-segregation and cytokinesis failure in trisomic human cells

    Joshua M Nicholson, Joana C Macedo ... Daniela Cimini
    Aneuploidy can cause chromosome mis-segregation and specific cellular phenotypes driven by expression of genes on the extra chromosome.

    Deletion of the MAD2L1 spindle assembly checkpoint gene is tolerated in mouse models of acute T-cell lymphoma and hepatocellular carcinoma

    Floris Foijer, Lee A Albacker ... Peter K Sorger
    Chromosomal instability through spindle assembly checkpoint alleviation facilitates malignant transformation of hepatocytes and T-cells in vivo, resulting in cancers with recurrent karyotypes.

    BubR1 alterations that reinforce mitotic surveillance act against aneuploidy and cancer

    Robbyn L Weaver, Jazeel F Limzerwala ... Jan M van Deursen
    Strengthening of spindle assembly checkpoint activity and attachment error correction through BubR1 manipulation preserves genomic integrity and protects against tumor formation.

    Genome rearrangements and pervasive meiotic drive cause hybrid infertility in fission yeast

    Sarah E Zanders, Michael T Eickbush ... Harmit Singh Malik
    Rapid acquisition of chromosome rearrangements, together with independently acting transmission distorter alleles on each chromosome, drive near complete sterility in fission yeast hybrids.

    Catastrophic chromosomal restructuring during genome elimination in plants

    Ek Han Tan, Isabelle M Henry ... Simon WL Chan
    Complex chromosomal rearrangements similar to those described in cancer and developmental syndromes occur in plants during postzygotic genome elimination, a centromeric-derived incompatibility.

    Sister kinetochore splitting and precocious disintegration of bivalents could explain the maternal age effect

    Agata P Zielinska, Zuzana Holubcova ... Melina Schuh
    Multiple age-related changes in chromosome architecture could explain why human oocyte aneuploidy increases with advanced maternal age.

    Non-invasive detection of urothelial cancer through the analysis of driver gene mutations and aneuploidy

    Simeon U Springer, Chung-Hsin Chen ... George J Netto
    The creation of a non-invasive assay for detecting urothelial cancer could have a profound impact on how we find and treat the disease.

    Quantifying chromosomal instability from intratumoral karyotype diversity using agent-based modeling and Bayesian inference

    Andrew R Lynch, Nicholas L Arp ... Mark E Burkard
    Chromosomal instability of cancer can be quantitatively measured by phylogenetic analysis of 200 tumor cells while using evolutionary principles to account for cellular selection.
