Centrosome duplication is tightly regulated to ensure that centrioles duplicate only once per cell cycle and that only one new centriole is produced per pre-existing centriole Phosphorylation events ...

Science paper also describes Orc1’s mechanism of action. Researchers at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory have discovered the protein that controls the copying of the centrosome in human cells and ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Newt eosinophils are motile granulated leukocytes that uniquely display a highly visible centrosomal area. Electron microscope and tubulin ...

This news release is available in German. The duplication of cellular contents and their distribution to two daughter cells during cell division are amongst the most fundamental features of all life ...

The centrosome and spindle pole body community gathered for its triennial meeting from 12–16 September, 2008 at EMBL in Heidelberg (Germany). Microtubules and their constellation of associated ...

A dividing cell duplicates its chromosomes and its centrosome, an organelle that helps divide the two sets of chromosomes equally to daughter cells, just once. Extra centrosome copies can lead to ...

The nuclear-centrosome complex was isolated from interphase Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, and, with exogenous brain tubulin as a source of subunits, the centrosome, while attached to the nucleus, ...

Mitosis is the process by which the genetic information encoded on chromosomes is equally distributed to two daughter cells, a fundamental feature of all life on earth. Scientists now examine how ...

All life on earth depends upon the process of mitosis or cell division in which the chromosomal content of a cell is equally divided between two new cells. For mitosis to occur, the chromosomes in ...

The story of the cell cycle is often told only through the perspective of the chromosomes as they replicate and then divide. This resource beautifully illustrates the role of the cytoskeleton in that ...

A research team led by Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) identified a role for autophagy in determining centrosome number via degradation of the centrosomal protein Cep63. Tokyo, Japan - ...
