Cell division is a complex process. At the heart of this complexity is a membraneless organelle called the centrosome, which ...
Mutations in the pedestal domain of the cell division protein FtsI alter how Pseudomonas aeruginosa regulates septal cell wall synthesis and can either increase or decrease its susceptibility to ...
Until now, cells dividing by mitosis were thought to grow round and then split into two identical, spherical daughter cells. New research has found that some cells are isomorphic, meaning they retain ...
Animals and fungi predominantly use two different modes of cell division -- called open and closed mitosis, respectively. A new study has shown that different species of Ichthyosporea -- marine ...
Symmetry is a fundamental characteristic of most multi-cell animals. However, the cell division of embryonic cells is asymmetric. A team led by Prof. Dr. Esther Zanin at the Department of Biology at ...
When a cell gets ready to divide, it shuts down its gene-reading machinery almost entirely. "As cells prepare to divide, they rapidly shut down most gene reading, or transcription," says Claudio R.
A centromere is a specialized location in the DNA that functions as the control center of cell division and is maintained, unchanged, across generations of cells. It is characterized by a special ...
Cell biology is the discipline of biological sciences that studies the structure, physiology, growth, reproduction and death of cells. Research in cell biology uses microscopic and molecular tools and ...
BENGALURU: Scientists from IISc’s Department of Microbiology and Cell Biology (MCB) have found a way to use blue light to ...
David Pellman (left) is a professor at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Harvard Medical School (both MA, USA), who also has affiliations with Howard Hughes Medical Institute (MD, USA) and the ...
When a human cell prepares to split into two daughter cells, it must first construct a tiny internal machine called the mitotic spindle—a structure of protein fibers that physically pulls chromosomes ...
