Mitotic chromosomes harbor cell type and species-specific structural features within a universal looping architecture

The paper investigates mitotic chromosome architecture across species and cell types, finding species-specific loop sizes but no cell type differences, and links loop size to chromosome arm compaction.

Mitotic bookmarking redundancy by nuclear receptors mediates robust post-mitotic reactivation of the pluripotency network.

The paper shows that redundancy among nuclear receptor bookmarking factors ensures robust reactivation of pluripotency genes after mitosis.

CTCF confers local nucleosome resiliency after DNA replication and during mitosis

The paper shows that CTCF and Esrrb maintain nucleosome positioning at gene regulatory regions during DNA replication and mitosis in mouse ES cells.

Transcription factor activity and nucleosome organisation in mitosis

The paper investigates how transcription factors maintain gene regulatory information during mitosis by comparing fixation methods and analyzing nucleosome organization.
