The five phases of mitosis and cell division tightly coordinate the movements of hundreds of proteins. How did early biologists unravel this complex dance of chromosomes? The most obvious difference ...
Every second, millions of cells in your body divide in two. In the space of an hour, they duplicate their DNA and grow a web of protein fibers around it called a spindle. The spindle extends its many ...
The development of fluorescence microscopy technologies has made live-cell imaging routine for the current generation of cell biologists. However, the ability to visualize the cell's architecture was ...
Every biology class learns about mitosis, which involves copying each of a cell's DNA-containing chromosomes, then separating them into two newly created cells. The act of chromosome separation is ...
