Our DNA is constantly under threat — from cell division errors to external factors like sunlight and smoking. Fortunately, ...

Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to ...

Cell division is key for life. Every organism—from the smallest yeast to complex human beings—depends upon the constant reproduction of individual cells. In this process, various mechanisms ...

Cell division is the process of a cell splitting into two genetically identical daughter cells. The actin protein seen in this video is essential for successful cell division. While actin has several ...

Scientists at the (UNIGE) have developed a tool that uses light to precisely control where and when a drug becomes active, ...

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.

UdeM reproductive biologist Greg FitzHarris and his team show for the first time that sister cells can communicate with each ...

Tested on a protein essential for cell division, this system could be applied to other molecules. The potential applications ...

A comprehensive encyclopedia of the known functions of all protein-coding human genes has just been completed and released. Researchers used large-scale evolutionary modeling to integrate data on ...

The five phases of mitosis and cell division tightly coordinate the movements of hundreds of proteins. How did early biologists unravel this complex dance of chromosomes? The most obvious ...
