The mitotic stopwatch synergizes with mild p53 activation to halt cell proliferation

Beata E. Mierzwa, Franz Meitinger, Arshad B. Desai, Karen Oegema

The paper identifies genes that activate the mitotic stopwatch by CRISPR/Cas9 screening, showing it synergizes with mild p53 activation to halt cell proliferation.

TRIM37 employs peptide motif recognition and substrate-dependent oligomerization to prevent ectopic spindle pole assembly

Andrew Bellaart, Amanda Brambila, Jiawei Xu, Francisco Mendez Diaz, Amar Deep, John V. Anzola, Franz Meitinger, Midori Ohta, Kevin D. Corbett, Arshad B. Desai, Karen Oegema

This study identifies how TRIM37 prevents ectopic spindle pole formation by recognizing peptide motifs in centrobin and undergoing substrate-dependent oligomerization.

Preservation of Chromatin Organization after Acute Loss of CTCF in Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells

Naoki Kubo, Haruhiko Ishii, Xiong Xiong, Simona Bianco, Franz Meitinger, Rong Hu, James D. Hocker, Mattia Conte, David U. Gorkin, Miao Yu, Bin Li, Jesse R. Dixon, Ming Hu, Mario Nicodemi, Huimin Zhao, Bing Ren

This study shows that chromatin organization remains largely intact in mouse embryonic stem cells after acute CTCF depletion, despite reduced cell growth and changes in chromatin loop interactions and cohesin occupancy.

CTCF Promotes Long-range Enhancer-promoter Interactions and Lineage-specific Gene Expression in Mammalian Cells

This study shows that CTCF depletion in mESCs weakens TAD boundaries and INs but only affects a small subset of enhancer-promoter contacts, highlighting CTCF's role in promoting long-range gene regulation.
