A "pocket" on the protein cyclin B is responsible for ensuring that the steps of cell division take place in the correct ...

Cell division is essential for the survival of all living organisms, from the simplest yeast to complex human beings.

A new study explains how mitochondria act as “reservoirs” to store NAD for cells to use, which could help scientists come up ...

Light and electron microscopy have distinct limitations. Light microscopy makes it difficult to resolve smaller and smaller features, and electron microscopy resolves small structures, but samples ...

Researchers at The University of Hong Kong (HKU) have made an exciting discovery about how human cells protect DNA during ...

In a study that could help scientists better understand and manipulate cell division, RIKEN biologists have engineered artificial structures that replicate one of life's most crucial processes ...

2. Ovarian Cancer: Research indicates that a woman's chance of developing ovarian cancer may be influenced by hormonal ...

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.

Additionally, the GC acts as a signalling hub to regulate a multitude of cellular processes, including cell polarity, motility, apoptosis, DNA repair and cell division. In light of these crucial roles ...
