How do cancer-specific chromosome gains/losses contribute to #oncogenesis?
Susanne Lens and collaborators at UMC Utrecht describe a #kinesin-based strategy for inducing #mitotic #missegregation of selected #chromosomes, as tool for modeling specific #aneuploidies

How do #yeast cells adapt to high rates of #chromosome #missegregation?

Chris Campbell and coworkers @maxperutzlabs define serial alterations from specific #aneuploidies, #karyotype refinement, point #mutations, to loss of beneficial copy number alterations
