The cGAS/STING/TBK1/IRF3 innate immunity pathway maintains chromosomal stability through regulation of p21 levels
Chromosomal instability (CIN) in cancer cells has been reported to activate the cGAS–STING innate immunity pathway via micronuclei formation, thus...

Methods of Detection and Mechanisms of Origin of Complex Structural Genome Variations
Based on classical karyoty**, structural genome variations (SVs) have generally been considered to be either “simple” (with one or two breakpoints)... -
A missense variant in NUF2, a component of the kinetochore NDC80 complex, causes impaired chromosome segregation and aneuploidy associated with microcephaly and short stature
Mutations in proteins involved in cell division and chromosome segregation, such as microtubule-regulating, centrosomal and kinetochore proteins, are...
