Absence of a spindle position checkpoint in the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans

Taylor K Wang, Julia Cano Matthews, Abigail Strege, Edward W. J. Wallace, Xiaoxue Zhou

This study shows that Cryptococcus neoformans lacks a spindle position checkpoint, allowing cytokinesis to proceed without proper chromosome segregation.

Template switching during DNA replication is a prevalent source of adaptive gene amplification

Julie N. Chuong, Nadav Ben Nun, Ina Suresh, Julia Cano Matthews, Titir De, Grace Avecilla, Farah Abdul‐Rahman, Nathan Brandt, Yoav Ram, David Gresham

The paper investigates how genomic architecture influences the formation and fitness of adaptive copy number variants (CNVs) in yeast, finding that template switching during DNA replication is a common mechanism for CNV generation.

Copy number variants alter local and global mutational tolerance

Grace Avecilla, Pieter Spealman, Julia Cano Matthews, Élodie Caudal, Joseph Schacherer, David Gresham

The paper investigates how copy number variants (CNVs) in yeast affect mutational tolerance and fitness, finding both increased tolerance in translation-related genes and decreased tolerance in mitochondrial function genes.
