DOI: 10.1002/bies.202000233
Abstract: With the ever‐increasing lifespan along with societal changes, women can marry and procreate later than in previous centuries. However, pathogenic genetic variants segregating in the population can lead to female subfertility or infertility well before… read more here.

A simple model explains the cell cycle-dependent assembly of centromeric nucleosomes in holocentric species
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Nucleic Acids Research"
DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkab648
Abstract: Abstract Centromeres are essential for chromosome movement. In independent taxa, species with holocentric chromosomes exist. In contrast to monocentric species, where no obvious dispersion of centromeres occurs during interphase, the organization of holocentromeres differs between… read more here.
