Nature Cell Biology is delighted to welcome you to this special issue, 'Focus on Cell Division', which we hope will be of interest not only to researchers within the field, but also to our readers ...

Examples of questions to ask students: How might the cytoskeleton be used in cell division? What other function(s) might the cytoskeleton perform in the cell? Can they create a simple model to ...

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 ...

Cytokinesis is a key event in the cell cycle requiring tight coordination of mitotic spindle assembly, actomyosin contractility and membrane dynamics, but the mechanisms that regulate cytokinesis are ...

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.

Cell division is a grand event which completely transforms the landscape. The cell starts behaving like the host of an international competition, reconfiguring entire streets, relocating buildings ...

These CENP-A proteins ensure that divided genetic information is kept intact during mitosis.

The engineered cells could help researchers understand how cells work together and trace the origins of certain illnesses ...

Cell division is fundamental to life, enabling growth, reproduction, and survival across all organisms, from single-celled bacteria to complex multicellular animals. While animals and fungi share a ...

Cell division is a grand event which completely transforms the landscape. The cell starts behaving like the host of an ...

Pardo Lorente's work reveals that MTHFD2 also moonlights within the nucleus, where it plays a pivotal role in ensuring proper cell division. The study is the first to demonstrate that the nucleus ...
