TLDR
By serial subcloning, a near-haploid subclone (P1-55) is isolated from a heterogeneous human leukemia cell line, KBM-7, which has approximately half the human diploid DNA content and has a haploid karyotype except for a disomy of chromosome 8.

Intracellular trafficking of retroviral genomes during the early phase of infection: viral exploitation of cellular pathways.

TL;DR: A deeper understanding of the pathways and components used by the different classes of retroviruses should enable the development of better and more efficient retroviral vectors for use in gene therapy protocols in vivo.

Generation of haploid embryonic stem cells from Macaca fascicularis monkey parthenotes

TL;DR: The derivation of haESCs from parthenogenetic blastocysts of Macaca fascicularis monkeys is reported, demonstrating that PG-haESCs can be generated from monkeys, providing an ideal tool for genetic analyses in primates.

Hyperactivation of HUSH complex function by Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease mutation in MORC2.

TL;DR: A novel method is exploited, differential viral accessibility (DIVA), to show that loss of MORC2 results in chromatin decompaction at these target loci, which is concomitant with a loss of H3K9me3 deposition and transcriptional derepression, and define a critical role for MORC 2 in epigenetic silencing by the HUSH complex.

Altering the genome by homologous recombination.

TL;DR: The current status of gene targeting with particular emphasis on germ line modification of the mouse genome is discussed, and the different methods so far employed to identify those rare embryonic stem cells in which the desired targeting event has occurred are described.

Production of clones of homozygous diploid zebra fish ( Brachydanio rerio )

TL;DR: Clones of homozygous fish have been produced from individual homozygotes and associated genetic methods facilitate genetic analyses of this vertebrate.

Bypass of Senescence After Disruption of p21CIP1/WAF1 Gene in Normal Diploid Human Fibroblasts

TL;DR: At the checkpoint between the prereplicative phase of growth and the phase of chromosome replication, cells lacking p21 failed to arrest the cell cycle in response to DNA damage, but their apoptotic response and genomic stability were unaltered.

Phenotypes of c-Myc-deficient rat fibroblasts isolated by targeted homologous recombination

TL;DR: The c-myc null cell lines reported here are a new experimental system in which to investigate the importance of putative c-Myc target genes and to identify novel downstream genes involved in cell cycle progression and apoptosis.
