Every time a tissue grows or renews itself, cells must divide inside an already crowded environment. That creates a ...
A new Nature Communications study reveals how the common AML mutation NPM1c+ exploits failures in mitotic chromosome ...
Bengaluru, October 2026 Yeast grown inside soft, tissue-like 3D materials divide far more slowly — with almost no change in their genes or proteins A study from Dr Tapomoy Bhattacharjee’s group at ...
A centromere is a specialized location in the DNA that functions as the control center of cell division and is maintained, unchanged, across generations of cells. It is characterized by a special ...
For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown how ...
"I've memorized 'meiosis.' But when asked about the number of chromosomes, I get it wrong."Have you ever felt that way when ...
A 'pocket' on the protein cyclin B is responsible for ensuring that the steps of cell division take place in the correct order. Cell division is key for life. Every organism -- from the smallest yeast ...
Using an innovative combination of biochemical experiments and ultra-high-resolution microscopy, a research team at Kiel University has solved the long-standing mystery of how the bacterium B.
A new study from the Stowers Institute for Medical Research shows that cell division actively reshapes epithelial tissue, ...
