The ESCRT-III membrane fission machinery maintains the integrity of the nuclear envelope. Although primary nuclei resealing takes minutes, micronuclear envelope ruptures seem to be irreversible. Instead, micronuclear ruptures result in catastrophic m... Read More about Unrestrained ESCRT-III drives micronuclear catastrophe and chromosome fragmentation.
