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

The Howard Hughes Medical Institute has named Fred Hutch Cancer Center postdoctoral researcher Grant King, PhD, a Hanna H.

and reproduction in all eukaryotic organisms. A new study sheds light on a specific group of proteins, known as NIMA-like kinases (NEKs), which play a vital role in cell division. These findings ...

Work over the past 20 years has unveiled the basic molecular workings of the control system that orders and coordinates the events of the eukaryotic cell-division cycle 1. The central components ...

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 ...

which are structural components that help maintain cell shape and facilitate cell division. They are composed of two centrioles and surrounding proteins, and they duplicate once per cell cycle to ...

as well as the proper function of genes in eukaryotic organisms. The two proteins, KNL2 and CENP-C, are crucial for correctly separating chromosomes during cell division. They dock precisely onto ...

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.

Lysosomes are organelles found within nearly all eukaryotic cells and are responsible for ... Glyco-core Research at Gifu University and the Division of Advanced Bioimaging at the National Cancer ...

Chromosomes carry genetic information in a molecule called DNA. A type of cell division called mitosis ensures that when a cell divides each new cell produced has the same genetic information.
