Determinants of dicentric chromosome breakage in Drosophila

Jackson T. Ridges, Hunter J. Hill, James G. Baldwin-Brown, Kent G. Golic, Nitin Phadnis

This study maps dicentric chromosome breakage hotspots in Drosophila and identifies structural complexity, replication-transcription conflict, and transposon involvement as key factors.

Wolbachia-induced cytoplasmic incompatibility produces heritable chromatin modifications that suppress position-effect variegation

Hunter J. Hill, William Sullivan, Brandon S. Cooper

The paper shows Wolbachia-induced chromatin modifications suppress position-effect variegation in Drosophila, persisting into adulthood and not fully reversed by CifA.

Drosophila ring chromosomes interact with sisters and homologs to produceanaphase bridges in mitosis.

Ho-Chen Lin, Mary M Golic, Hunter J. Hill, Katherine F. Lemons, Truc T. Vuong, Madison Smith, Forrest Golic, Kent G. Golic

The paper identifies five causes of anaphase bridges formed by ring chromosomes in Drosophila melanogaster, including sister chromatid catenation and homolog capture.

Dicentric chromosome breakage in Drosophila melanogaster is influenced by pericentric heterochromatin and reveals a novel class of fragile site.

Hunter J. Hill, Danielle Bonser, Kent G. Golic

The paper studies dicentric chromosome breakage in Drosophila melanogaster and finds that breakage hotspots are not conserved and are influenced by pericentric heterochromatin and centromere origin.
