In mitosis, two cells called daughter cells are produced, each identical to the parent cell. When looking at cells with a microscope, the length of different stages of the cell cycle can be ...

During mitosis, many of the spindle fibers attach ... Prometaphase is an extremely dynamic part of the cell cycle. Microtubules rapidly assemble and disassemble as they grow out of the centrosomes ...

We therefore suggest that mitosis can be re-staged to reflect more accurately the molecular pathways that underlie key transitions. Cell division is the terminal phase of the cell cycle ...

when the parent cell combines with another parent cell, the proper amount of DNA is maintained. This solution is called meiosis. Mitosis describes the process by which the nucleus of a cell ...

Welcome to Mitosis vs. Meiosis. This half of the screen illustrates mitosis—the division of a cell's nucleus. Along with cytokinesis (the division of the rest of a cell), mitosis results in a ...

Scientists have identified a new variant of the cell cycle that could provide insight into how diseases like cancer occur. Maggie Chen is a scientist and science journalist covering health, biology, ...

A mechanosensitive nuclear checkpoint triggers cell cycle arrest after chromosome mis-segregation. Chromosome segregation errors during mitosis, induced for example by centromere dysfunction (the red ...

as key regulators of mitosis. These proteins have since been found across a wide range of eukaryotes, where they are critical for cell cycle progression and microtubule organization. In simpler ...
