Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to ...

Cell division is the process of a cell splitting into two genetically identical daughter cells. The actin protein seen in this video is essential for successful cell division. While actin has several ...

Examples of questions to ask students: How might the cytoskeleton be used in cell division? What other function(s) might the cytoskeleton perform in the cell? Can they create a simple model to ...

With the theoretical part extended, this paper would be of interest to cell biologists and biophysicists working on asymmetric partitioning during cell division. Asymmetric partition of fate ...

New research from an international team of plant biologists, led by researchers at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems ...

Organelles in cells were originally often independent cells, which were incorporated by host cells and lost their ...

All cells are produced from other cells by the process of cell division. Cell division occurs when one cell divides to produce two new cells. Unicellular organisms use cell division to reproduce.

Using an unbiased approach, this important study discovered a role of Ezh2 in the differentiation of granule neuron precursors, the cell of origin for Shh group of medulloblastoma. Furthermore, the ...

In addition to exporting materials out of the nucleus, the protein, called Exportin-1 (also called Xpo1 or Crm1), seems to play a role in promoting gene transcription, the process that creates RNA ...

The Division of Cell and Molecular Biology studies the complex interplay of genes, proteins and biological processes that drive the development and growth of cancers. Understanding the many different ...
