Time-resolved cryo-EM (TR-EM) analysis of substrate polyubiquitination by the RING E3 anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C)
Substrate polyubiquitination drives a myriad of cellular processes, including the cell cycle, apoptosis and immune responses. Polyubiquitination is...

Mechanisms for the temporal regulation of substrate ubiquitination by the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome
The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi-subunit, multifunctional ubiquitin ligase that controls the temporal degradation of...

piRNA-independent function of PIWIL1 as a co-activator for anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome to drive pancreatic cancer metastasis
Piwi proteins are normally restricted in germ cells to suppress transposons through associations with Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), but they are...

Principles and dynamics of spindle assembly checkpoint signalling
The transmission of a complete set of chromosomes to daughter cells during cell division is vital for development and tissue homeostasis. The spindle...

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in cell cycle control
Ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis is one of the key mechanisms underlying cell cycle control. The removal of barriers posed by accumulation of... -
Role of chromosomal cohesion and separation in aneuploidy and tumorigenesis
Cell division is a crucial process, and one of its essential steps involves copying the genetic material, which is organized into structures called...

Real-Time Monitoring of APC /C-Mediated Substrate Degradation Using Xenopus laevis Egg Extracts
The anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/CAPC/C), a large E3 ubiquitin ligase, is a key regulator of mitotic progression. Upon activation in... -
Aneuploidy and complex genomic rearrangements in cancer evolution
Mutational processes that alter large genomic regions occur frequently in develo** tumors. They range from simple copy number gains and losses to...
