DNA Double Strand Breaks cause chromosome loss through sister chromatid tethering in human embryos

Jenna M. Turocy, Stepan Jerabek, Woonyung Hur, Jimin Kim, Shuangyi Xu, Qiaojin Zhao, Jia L. Xu, Alex Robles, Xiangyi Liu, Nathan R. Treff, Diego Marin, Anna‐Katerina Hadjantonakis, Dieter M. Egli

This study shows that DNA double-strand breaks in human embryos lead to chromosome loss through sister chromatid tethering and centromere-mediated separation.

ETV4 and ETV5 Orchestrate FGF-Mediated Lineage Specification and Epiblast Maturation during Early Mouse Development

Claire S. Simon, Woonyung Hur, Vidur Garg, Ying-Yi Kuo, Kathy K. Niakan, Anna‐Katerina Hadjantonakis

This study shows that ETV4 and ETV5 regulate lineage specification and embryo patterning in mice by affecting primitive endoderm formation and pluripotency exit.

Scale-independent topological interactions drive the first fate decision in the Drosophila embryo

Woonyung Hur, Arghyadip Mukherjee, Luke Hayden, Ziqi Lu, Anna T. Chao, Noah Mitchell, Sebastian J. Streichan, Massimo Vergassola, Stefano Di Talia

The paper shows that topological spindle-spindle interactions, not internuclear distance, control spindle orientation and nuclear fate in Drosophila embryos.
