The complex genome has hindered the study of genomic structures. Here, we adopted a computational strategy to isolate highly repetitive and abundant sequences in either S. officinarum or S. spontaneum and isolated four S. spontaneum-enriched retrotransposons. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) assays with these repetitive DNA sequences generated whole-genome painting signals for S. spontaneum but not for S. officinarum. We demonstrated that these repetitive sequence-based probes distinguish the parental S. spontaneum genome in hybrids derived from crosses between it and S. officinarum. A cytological analysis of 14 modern sugarcane cultivars revealed that the percentages of chromosomes with introgressive S. spontaneum fragments ranged from 11.9 to 40.9% and substantially exceeded those determined for previously investigated cultivars (5-13%). The comparatively higher percentages of introgressive S. spontaneum fragments detected in the aforementioned cultivars indicate frequent recombination between parental genomes. Here, we present the application of our strategy to isolate species-specific cytological markers. This information may help to elucidate complex plant genomic structures and trace their evolutionary histories.","PeriodicalId":10248,"journal":{"name":"Chromosoma","volume":"129 1","pages":"45-55"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00412-019-00729-1","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37467344","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The centromeric protein A (CENP-A) and its Drosophila orthologue centromere identifier (Cid) are H3 histone variants that replace the canonical H3 histone in centromeric nucleosomes of eukaryotes. CENP-A/Cid is required for recruitment of other centromere and kinetochore proteins and its deficiency disrupts chromosome segregation. Despite the many components that are known to cooperate in centromere function, the complete network of factors involved in CENP-A recruitment remains to be defined. In Drosophila, the Trx-G proteins localize along the heterochromatin with specific patterns and some of them localize to the centromeres of all chromosomes. Here, we show that the Trx, Ash1, and CBP proteins are required for the correct chromosome segregation and that Ash1 and CBP mediate for Cid/CENP-A recruitment at centromeres through post-translational histone modifications. We found that centromeric H3 histone is consistently acetylated in K27 by CBP and that nej and ash1 silencing respectively causes a decrease in H3K27 acetylation and H3K4 methylation along with an impairment of Cid loading.","PeriodicalId":10248,"journal":{"name":"Chromosoma","volume":"128 4","pages":"503-520"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2019-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00412-019-00711-x","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37332478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sirtuins are expressed in human and mouse oocytes yet their role during female gamete development are not fully understood. Here, we investigated the role of a mammalian sirtuin member, SIRT7, in oocytes using a mouse knockout (KO) model. Sirt7 KO females have compromised fecundity characterized by a rapid fertility decline with age, suggesting the existence of a diminished oocyte pool. Accordingly, Sirt7 KO females produced fewer oocytes and ovulated fewer eggs. Because of the documented role of SIRT7 in DNA repair, we investigated whether SIRT7 regulates prophase I when meiotic recombination occurs. Sirt7 KO pachynema-like staged oocytes had approximately twofold increased γH2AX signals associated with regions with unsynapsed chromosomes. Consistent with the presence of asynaptic chromosome regions, Sirt7 KO oocytes had fewer MLH1 foci (~one less), a mark of crossover-mediated repair, than WT oocytes. Moreover, this reduced level of crossing over is consistent with an observed twofold increased incidence of aneuploidy in Metaphase II eggs. In addition, we found that acetylated lysine 18 of histone H3 (H3K18ac), an established SIRT7 substrate, was increased at asynaptic chromosome regions suggesting a functional relationship between this epigenetic mark and chromosome synapsis. Taken together, our findings demonstrate a pivotal role for SIRT7 in oocyte meiosis by promoting chromosome synapsis and have unveiled the importance of SIRT7 as novel regulator of the reproductive lifespan.","PeriodicalId":10248,"journal":{"name":"Chromosoma","volume":"128 3","pages":"369-383"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00412-019-00713-9","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37116800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For most organisms, including budding yeast and other fungi, mammals, nematodes, and plants, the major CO pathway depends on ZMM proteins, a set of molecular actors specifically devoted to recognize and stabilize CO-specific DNA intermediates that are formed during homologous recombination. The progressive implementation of ZMM-dependent COs takes place within the context of the synaptonemal complex (SC), a proteinaceous structure that polymerizes between homologs and participates in close homolog juxtaposition during prophase I of meiosis. While SC polymerization starts from ZMM-bound sites and ZMM proteins are required for SC polymerization in budding yeast and the fungus Sordaria, other organisms differ in their requirement for ZMM in SC elongation. This review provides an overview of ZMM functions and discusses their collaborative tasks for CO formation and SC assembly, based on recent findings and on a comparison of different model organisms.","PeriodicalId":10248,"journal":{"name":"Chromosoma","volume":"128 3","pages":"181-198"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s00412-019-00714-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37362871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
