Directional branch migration remodels the meiotic Holliday junction landscape

Martin Xaver, Anura Shodhan, Nataliia D. Kashko, Michael Lichten, Joao Matos

This study maps meiotic Holliday junctions genome-wide using HJSeq, showing directional branch migration during pachytene linked to transcription and the ZMM pathway.

Turning coldspots into hotspots: targeted recruitment of axis protein Hop1 stimulates meiotic recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Anura Shodhan, Martin Xaver, David Lee Wheeler, Michael Lichten

This study shows that recruiting Hop1 to coldspots increases DSBs and recombination, demonstrating Hop1's sufficiency for DSB formation but not crossover pathway selection.
