Exciting news from our lab! We’ve preprinted that the yeast protein Msc1, known for DNA repair, shifts to nucleus-vacuole junctions (NVJs) during the diauxic shift and prevents toxic NPC aggregation as cells prepare for quiescence. Read it on bioRxiv! 👇 biorxiv.org/content/10.64898…

🦠¿Cómo se defienden nuestras células para evitar la aparición del cáncer? El grupo "Inestabilidad Genética y Cáncer", liderado por el Dr. Félix Machín, investiga los mecanismos de la división celular y cómo se reparan las roturas en las cadenas de ADN. @ULL #ITB

Check out our latest work from @FMachinLab, published in @eLife: “Cohesin reconstitution and homologous recombination repair of DNA double-strand breaks in late mitosis” doi.org/10.7554/eLife.92706.… I’d like to especially thank Dr. Lorraine Symington for her invaluable collaboration.

A continuation from our previous paper on iScience, we now show that Msc1 maintains nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complex integrity for DNA repair. Msc1 synergistically works with the ESCRT-III complex for this purpose, underscoring NE homeostasis as key to genome stability.

Closed mitosis is a form of cell division used by pathogenic fungi and protists. In this process, chromosomes are segregated without dismantling the nuclear envelope (NE). But what happens when they undergo mitosis with an excess of NE? Find out here! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

I am looking for candidates to apply for a Juan de la Cierva postdoctoral fellowship to work on the link between the nuclear envelope and genome instability. Rush, there is only one week left but I’ve got my part ready!
