Nuclear volume and the number of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) on the nucleus almost double during interphase in dividing cells. How these events are coordinated with the cell cycle is poorly ...

Researchers in Japan have discovered that the local DNA motion inside of human cells remains steady throughout interphase, where the cell grows and replicates its DNA for cell division. The study ...

The anaphase-promoting complex (APC) initiates exit from mitosis by ubiquitinating A- and B-type cyclins, the activating subunits of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1). Subsequently, the APC has to be ...

Induction of interphase death was examined in Chinese hamster ovary cells exposed to accelerated heavy ions (carbon, neon, argon and iron) of various linear energy transfers (LETs) (10-2000 keV/μm).

The effects of sucrose concentration on the rate of root elongation and on cell proliferation and quiescence in the apical meristem of excised roots of Pisum sativum have been investigated and the ...
