Asymmetric distribution of centromere proteins between germline stem and daughter cells maintains a balanced niche in Drosophila males
2022-09-30
Abstract excerpt
In the germline, stem cells undergo asymmetric cell division (ACD) to give rise to one new stem cell as well as one daughter cell that differentiates and eventually gives rise to the gamete (egg or sperm). The silent sister hypothesis proposes the selective inheritance of one set of sister chromatids carrying specific epigenetic marks to explain how genetically identical stem and daughter cells can adopt different...
