Extensive understanding of cell cycle regulation has led to the proposal of new strategies for cancer therapy. Targeting regulators of centrosome duplication and separation, spindle formation and ...

The other type of mitotic failure, which causes generation of lagging chromosomes, chromosome bridges and/or micronuclei formation, is the premature onset of anaphase without prolonged mitotic arrest.

Germ cell fate decisions are poorly understood, despite their central role in reproduction. One fundamental question has been whether germ cells are regulated to enter the meiotic cell cycle (i.e., ...

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. Mitosis ...

This activity and guide has been thoughtfully designed to help you fully understand exactly what's happening at every stage of mitosis. Mitosis will produce two daughter cells which are genetically ...

Textbook accounts of the cell cycle may need to be rewritten now that scientists have found that some DNA is replicated later than expected. Specifically, DNA sequences that correspond to genomic ...
