A large structure called the mitotic spindle also forms from long proteins called microtubules on each side, or pole, of the cell. During prometaphase, the nuclear envelope that encloses the ...

The subsequent breakdown of the nuclear envelope terminates prophase and initiates prometaphase, during which the chromosomes become attached to and positioned on the mitotic spindle as it forms.

Cell division is essential to the propagation of life. During cell division, mitotic spindles segregate duplicated chromosomes with high fidelity. Spindle structure depends on the proper polar ...

During cell division, a mitotic spindle forms to align and pull chromosomes apart. Our group simulates spindle formation in fission yeast cells using computational models. I am currently study the ...

the mitotic spindle, centromeres, kinetochores, and mitotic checkpoints. Microtubules, components of the cytoskeleton, form ...

HDAC6 is upregulated in corneal diseases and causes ENKD1 deacetylation at lysine 98. Deacetylation of ENKD1 blocks its ...

In an article published in the journal PloS Computational Biology, the scientists focused on the length of the mitotic spindle, which forms to allow the migration of chromosomes during cell ...
