Journal ArticleDOI
The genome and the nucleus: a marriage made by evolution. Genome organisation and nuclear architecture.
TL;DR: The nuclear structures that are involved in genome function are described, with reference to what happens to the genome when these structures contain protein from mutant genes as in the laminopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Non-random chromosome positioning in mammalian sperm nuclei, with migration of the sex chromosomes during late spermatogenesis.
TL;DR: This study reveals the temporal repositioning of chromosome territories in spermatogenesis and maps the preferential position of all chromosomes in sperm nuclei in two dimensions and establishes that the sex chromosomes are the most internally localized chromosomes in mature sperm.
Journal ArticleDOI
The spatial repositioning of adipogenesis genes is correlated with their expression status in a porcine mesenchymal stem cell adipogenesis model system
TL;DR: From the data, it appears that the temporal repositioning of genes, emanating away from chromosomes, during adipogenesis is correlated with gene activity, supporting models of the involvement of spatial genome repositioned in regulating gene expression and the nuclear interior being an important region of the nucleus for transcription.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Consequences of Replicating in the Wrong Orientation: Bacterial Chromosome Duplication without an Active Replication Origin
Juachi U. Dimude,Anna Stockum,Sarah L Midgley-Smith,Amy L. Upton,Amy L. Upton,Helen A. Foster,Arshad Khan,Nigel J. Saunders,Renata Retkute,Christian J. Rudolph +9 more
TL;DR: Data is presented suggesting that in cells lacking RecG or RNase HI, origin-independent synthesis arises by different mechanisms, indicative of these two proteins having different roles in vivo.
Journal Article
Differential expression of mTOR signalling components in drug resistance in ovarian cancer.
Helen A. Foster,Helen M. Coley,Anastasia G. Goumenou,George Pados,Amanda J. Harvey,Emmanouil Karteris +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesize that mTOR signalling may play a role in mediating paclitaxel resistance in ovarian cancer.
