Transposable elements (TEs) are major components of eukaryotic genomes. However, the
extent of their impact on genome evolution, function, and disease remain a matter of intense …

The process of cell division plays a vital role in cancer progression. Cell proliferation and
error-free chromosomes segregation during mitosis are central events in life cycle. Mistakes …

Centromeres (CEN) are the chromosomal regions that play a crucial role in maintaining
genomic stability. The underlying highly repetitive DNA sequences can evolve quickly in …

Birds, the most species‐rich monophyletic group of land vertebrates, have been subject to
some of the most intense sequencing efforts to date, making them an ideal case study for …

Centromeres are the genomic regions that organize and regulate chromosome behaviours
during cell cycle, and their variations are associated with genome instability, karyotype …

Centromeres strongly affect (epi) genomic architecture and meiotic recombination dynamics,
influencing the overall distribution and frequency of crossovers. Here we show how …

Tandem repeats can occupy a large portion of plant genomes and can either cause or result
from chromosomal rearrangements, which are important drivers of dysploidy-mediated …

Transposable elements (TEs) are an important part of eukaryotic genomes. The role of
somatic transposition in aging, carcinogenesis, and other age-related diseases has been …

The kinetochore is a large protein complex, which is assembled at the centromere of a
chromosome to ensure faithful chromosome segregation during M-phase. The centromere in …

Epigenetic information carried by histone modifications not only reflects the state of gene
expression, but also participates in the maintenance of chromatin states and the regulation …
