Mitosis orchestrates eukaryotic cell division, maintaining genetic fidelity and playing a key role in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer progression.

See Figure 4 for details about the system components ... Another study combined laser scissors and tweezers to study the mechanical forces during mitosis (Ono et al., 2017). Optical tweezers and laser ...

Chromosomes are cellular structures that contain the genetic material. A chromosome is comprised of a single DNA molecule that may be either circular or linear. The full complement of a cell s ...

The activity on this page has been designed by educational experts to help you to understand the three stages of mitosis. Interact with the activity to see the mitosis phases and descriptions.

eLife is a non-profit organisation inspired by research funders and led by scientists. Our mission is to help scientists accelerate discovery by operating a platform for research communication that ...

However, 2 or more hours in a medium without drug were necessary to estimulate mitosis (Figure 4). Chromosome aberrations were induced in cell monolayers by olivacine hydrochloride at 0.5 - 3.0pg/ml ...

In mammals, inches-long segments of DNA are compacted into a chromosome less than 10 μm long via a multi-level process [4]. This process begins with the formation of nucleosomes, wherein DNA wraps ...

Quantification and characterization of these multiple HML-2 insertions in the human chromosome has been challenging due to their size ... We used the same coordinates for each loci in this study to ...

Two relatively frequent syndromes involve chromosome 4 and may coincide in the same person in the form of a ring chromosome 4. Formation of a ring chromosome 4, r(4), often involves loss of 4p and 4q ...

CMRI researchers discovered that DNA repair pathways control how cancer cells die after radiotherapy. Blocking a key repair ...
