Every high school biology class learns about the tiny cells that comprise our bodies, as well as about many of the diverse actions that they perform. One of these actions is called mitosis, the series ...
During cell division, the pericentriolar matrix (PCM; blue lines) expands. In C. elegans, the main structural protein of the PCM is SPD-5, which, upon activation, binds to γ tubulin complexes (purple ...
Keeping you up to date with the chemistry news that matters most. Published by the American Chemical Society.
An actomyosin network (PANEM) forms around the nucleus in prophase, and its contraction repositions peripheral and polar chromosomes to facilitate their interaction with the mitotic spindle, ensuring ...

Scientists figured out why some DNA-doubled cells refuse to die, finding the ones born from failed cell division are far more stable and likely to survive
Cells that double their entire genome do not all share the same fate. New research published in the Proceedings of the ...

Cells that double their DNA through failed division survive far better than those from botched chromosome splits, a clue to how some cancers take hold
Cells that acquire a doubled genome after a failed division step survive and proliferate far more effectively than cells left ...
Researchers have revealed a surprising new role for a key protein in cell division. The discovery, reported in two back-to-back papers, challenges long-standing models and textbook accounts in biology ...
