Journal ArticleDOI

Replication stress activates DNA repair synthesis in mitosis

TL;DR: It is suggested that targeting this POLD3-dependent mitotic DNA synthesis is enhanced in aneuploid cancer cells that exhibit intrinsically high levels of chromosomal instability (CIN+) and replicative stress, and could represent a new therapeutic approach.
Journal ArticleDOI

PICH promotes sister chromatid disjunction and co-operates with topoisomerase II in mitosis

TL;DR: De deletion of PICH in avian cells causes chromosome structural abnormalities, and hypersensitivity to an inhibitor of Topoisomerase II (Topo II), ICRF-193, and it is proposed that PICH and Topo II cooperate to prevent chromosome missegregation events in mitosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Folate stress induces SLX1- and RAD51-dependent mitotic DNA synthesis at the fragile X locus in human cells.

TL;DR: It is proposed that break-induced DNA replication is required for the replication of FRAXA under folate stress and defined a cellular function for human SLX1, which provides insights into how folate deprivation drives instability in the human genome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Folate deficiency drives mitotic missegregation of the human FRAXA locus

TL;DR: It is shown that folate stress leads to a dramatic increase in missegregation of FRAXA coupled with the formation of single-stranded DNA bridges in anaphase and micronuclei that contain the F RAXA locus, which generates further instability not only at FRAxA itself but also of chromosome X.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromothripsis and DNA Repair Disorders.

TL;DR: The present review focuses on the underlying mechanisms of chromothripsis and the involvement of defective DNA repair genes, resulting in chromosome instability and Chromosome instability-like rearrangements.
