Gut support cells communicate with surprising precision – like brain neurons – using tiny extensions to send instructions to ...

To the point DNA packaging: DNA exists in different states in order to fulfill different functions in the cell nucleus. A research team has now discovered a molecular switch that controls the ...

Former DHS chief warns of Iranian sleeper cells after U.S. strikes, calling it a “highest magnitude" threat and urging the public to stay vigilant.

The view of plant-cell cytokinesis commonly depicted in textbooks is of a symmetrical process, with the phragmoplast initiating in the center of the cell and growing outward to the parental cell ...

Scientists have elucidated the molecular mechanism by which LEM-3 cuts DNA bridges during cytokinesis. If DNA bridges persist between chromosomes during cell division, chromosomes are abnormally ...

Once thought to be a characteristic of stem cells, this work has suggested that asymmetric cell division plays an important role in the formation of different tissues and organs. The research has ...

Septin structures act as scaffolds for assembling and organizing various proteins required for cytokinesis and cell division across organisms 8, 9. Septins act as a diffusion barrier at the cell ...

AGC Biologics announced a new dedicated Cell and Gene Technologies Division, providing resources for this market lacking technical CDMO expertise.

About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it activates other proteins involved in this process. Plk1 is also ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell's ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves. For this, the cell must duplicate its DNA—its genome—and segregate it ...
