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

The Min protein system prevents abnormal cell division in bacteria, but is poorly understood. Researchers have uncovered how engineered e.coli bacteria control protein levels for maximum efficiency.

Researchers have found a molecular mechanism that prevents multiplication of potentially dangerous cells by measuring the duration of mitosis. They have shown that this mechanism -- the Mitotic ...

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

Nearly half the embryos studied underwent developmental arrest because of genetic mishaps in early development—a revealing insight that suggests more IVF babies could come to term with changes in the ...

Arteriovenous malformations, a hallmark of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, may be driven by endothelial cell-cycle acceleration via CDK6, suggesting potential for repurposing CDK6 inhibitors.

The Min protein system prevents abnormal cell division in bacteria by forming oscillating patterns between the ends of a cell ("poles"). Despite decades of theoretical work, predicting the protein ...

Down Syndrome is a genetic disorder caused by abnormal cell division during the early stages of the development of the foetus. [iStockphoto] You might have seen some children or even adults with ...

Longitudinal sections of inflorescence stems of wild type (WT) (left) and at2-mmp mutant (right) at 7 days after incision. Arrowheads indicate the position of incision. Scale bars, 100 μm. Overall, ...
