I had fun writing this N&Vs on two fascinating new papers on centromere evolution in yeast. If you’re interested in how centromeres adapt yet stay functional, here’s my take. rdcu.be/e6DD0 @nature.com @gautamdey.bsky.social @gsherloc.bsky.social @helsenjana.bsky.social @maxhaase.bsky.social

How can fast-evolving DNA retain a fundamental function in cell division? | Nature

In a dividing cell, chromosome pairs are pulled apart thanks to attachment sites called centromeres. Yeast genomes reveal key steps in how centromeres have evolved.

A new preprint from our group in collaboration with @jvhooff.bsky.social and @eelcotromer.bsky.social. We discovered that trypanosomes have (a zombie of) Bub1-Bub3 despite the fact that tryps do not have a canonical spindle checkpoint! This is a team work involving Dan, WillC, Midori and Patryk
