      This study presents valuable findings on the functional consequences of nuclear envelope rupture caused by the depletion of nuclear pore complex subunits on the behaviour and organisation of chromosomes during mitosis in C. elegans embryos. The experiments are generally well-designed and executed; however, the evidence for some of the main conclusions is incomplete. This work is of potential interest to cell biologists working on cell division.

      eLife Assessment

      Using sci-L3-Strand-seq, this study shows genome-wide, single-cell evidence that DSBs triggered by CRISPR/Cas9 are frequently resolved through sister chromatid exchange (SCE), which is undetectable with conventional whole-genome sequencing approaches. This important work provides helpful metrics quantifying the occurrence of SCE events at targeted and repetitive genomic loci that are of particular interest to those working in gene editing, DNA repair, genome instability, or repetitive genomic loci. However, the evidence supporting the proposed involvement of under-replicated region/replication-termination-zone resolution and TRAIP/URR-like pathways is currently incomplete and could be strengthened with an increased number of reciprocal daughter-cell pairs and by genetic or molecular perturbation, or alternatively, this can be addressed by changing the discussion.
