Adaptation to high rates of chromosomal instability and aneuploidy through multiple pathways in budding yeast

Matthew N. Clarke et al.

Summary: Both an increased frequency of chromosome missegregation (chromosomal instability, CIN) and the presence of an abnormal complement of chromosomes (aneuploidy) are hallmarks of cancer. We previously studied yeast cells lacking the gene BIR1, a member of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), and found that they quickly adapted to high levels of CIN by acquiring specific combinations of beneficial aneuploidies. In this study, we monitored these yeast strains over a longer period of time and identified suppressor mutations that reduce chromosomal instability but not the negative effects of aneuploidy.

Three interacting regions of the Ndc80 and Dam1 complexes support microtubule tip-coupling under load

Rachel L. Flores et al.

Summary: The study reveals that interactions between Ndc80 complex and Dam1 complex through three distinct interacting regions play a vital role in supporting both short-term and long-term tip-coupling during mitosis. Phosphorylation by Aurora B kinase may modulate these interactions and impact the accuracy of mitosis.

A transcriptional roadblock protects yeast centromeres

Sabrine Hedouin et al.

Summary: This study used a targeted RNA isoform sequencing approach to identify the transcriptional landscape at and surrounding all centromeres in budding yeast. They found that most pericentromeres are transcribed throughout the cell cycle, but centromere accessibility to the transcription machinery is restricted to S-phase, which is controlled by the centromere-binding transcription factor Cbf1. Deletion of Cbf1 leads to an accumulation of cenRNAs at all phases of the cell cycle and increased chromosome mis-segregation.

Full humanization of the glycolytic pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Francine J. Boonekamp et al.

Summary: This study demonstrates the feasibility and implementation of full humanization of glycolysis in yeast, using advances in synthetic biology. The research reveals the conservation of glycolytic function across different species and environments, and shows that yeast cells transplanted with human glycolytic enzymes exhibit similar turnover numbers to human cell cultures.

Systemic and rapid restructuring of the genome: a new perspective on punctuated equilibrium

Lydia R. Heasley et al.

Summary: The rates and patterns by which cells acquire mutations have a profound impact on their evolutionary trajectories and phenotypic potential. Recent evidence suggests that cells can also experience mutagenic processes that drive rapid genome evolution, including punctuated bursts of genomic instability. This review surveys the dominant and emerging theories of eukaryotic genome evolution, with a particular focus on the importance of punctuated bursts of genomic instability.
