Scientists have uncovered a new way embryonic cells divide when conventional mechanisms fail. Cell division underpins all ...

Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early ...

Researchers at Dresden University of Technology reveal that early zebrafish embryos divide without a closed actin ring.

Despite the immense amount of genetic material present in each cell, around 3 billion base pairs in humans, this material ...

It's long been assumed that when a parent cell divides into two daughter cells, the parent assumes a spherical shape, which then splits into two cells that have roughly the same, round size. But a new ...

Researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research, London identified the CIP2A–TOPBP1 complex as a master regulator of DNA repair during mitosis, coordinating backup pathways that protect chromosomes ...

Researchers have developed a way to 3D print custom micrometer-sized structures directly into the interior of living cells.

As the cell proceeds through the stages of cell division (from left to right: interphase, prometaphase, metaphase, and anaphase), chromosomes become progressively more compact through a combination of ...

The story of the cell cycle is often told only through the perspective of the chromosomes as they replicate and then divide. This resource beautifully illustrates the role of the cytoskeleton in that ...

What am I looking at? This is a time-lapse video showing the dynamic nature of the ER in monkey kidney cells as they undergo cell division. The density of the ER network is represented by the ...
