Chromosome segregation and genomic stability

VM Draviam, S Xie, PK Sorger�- Current opinion in genetics & development, 2004 - Elsevier
The acquisition of genomic instability is a crucial step in the development of human cancer.
Genomic instability has multiple causes of which chromosomal instability (CIN) and�…

[HTML][HTML] Timing and checkpoints in the regulation of mitotic progression

P Meraldi, VM Draviam, PK Sorger�- Developmental cell, 2004 - cell.com
Accurate chromosome segregation relies on the precise regulation of mitotic progression.
Regulation involves control over the timing of mitosis and a spindle assembly checkpoint�…

Anaphase initiation is regulated by antagonistic ubiquitination and deubiquitination activities

F Stegmeier, M Rape, VM Draviam, G Nalepa…�- Nature, 2007 - nature.com
The spindle checkpoint prevents chromosome mis-segregation by delaying sister chromatid
separation until all chromosomes have achieved bipolar attachment to the mitotic spindle. Its�…

PAXX, a paralog of XRCC4 and XLF, interacts with Ku to promote DNA double-strand break repair

T Ochi, AN Blackford, J Coates, S Jhujh, S Mehmood…�- Science, 2015 - science.org
XRCC4 and XLF are two structurally related proteins that function in DNA double-strand
break (DSB) repair. Here, we identify human PAXX (PAralog of XRCC4 and XLF, also called�…

The ch-TOG/XMAP215 protein is essential for spindle pole organization in human somatic cells

F Gergely, VM Draviam, JW Raff�- Genes & development, 2003 - genesdev.cshlp.org
The ch-TOG/XMAP215 family of proteins bind directly to microtubules and appear to play an
essential role in stabilizing spindle microtubules. These proteins stabilize microtubules�…

The localization of human cyclins B1 and B2 determines CDK1 substrate specificity and neither enzyme requires MEK to disassemble the Golgi apparatus

VM Draviam, S Orrechia, M Lowe, R Pardi…�- The Journal of cell�…, 2001 - rupress.org
In this paper, we show that substrate specificity is primarily conferred on human mitotic cyclin-
dependent kinases (CDKs) by their subcellular localization. The difference in localization of�…

[HTML][HTML] Lateral to end-on conversion of chromosome-microtubule attachment requires kinesins CENP-E and MCAK

RL Shrestha, VM Draviam�- Current biology, 2013 - cell.com
Background Proper attachment of chromosomes to microtubules is crucial for the accurate
segregation of chromosomes. Human chromosomes attach initially to lateral walls of�…

[HTML][HTML] Opportunities and challenges for deep learning in cell dynamics research

B Chai, C Efstathiou, H Yue, VM Draviam�- Trends in Cell Biology, 2023 - cell.com
The growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has led to an increase in the adoption of computer
vision and deep learning (DL) techniques for the evaluation of microscopy images and�…

Misorientation and reduced stretching of aligned sister kinetochores promote chromosome missegregation in EB1‐or APC‐depleted cells

VM Draviam, I Shapiro, B Aldridge, PK Sorger�- The EMBO journal, 2006 - embopress.org
The correct formation of stable but dynamic links between chromosomes and spindle
microtubules (MTs) is essential for accurate chromosome segregation. However, the�…

Microtubule plus-ends within a mitotic cell are 'moving platforms' with anchoring, signalling and force-coupling roles

N Tamura, VM Draviam�- Open biology, 2012 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The microtubule polymer grows and shrinks predominantly from one of its ends called the
'plus-end'. Plus-end regulation during interphase is well understood. However, mitotic�…
