Mitosis is usually shorter than meiosis. The process can take over 10 hours for mammalian cells in culture [2], budding yeast can take ~80 minutes to complete a cell cycle [3], whilst bacteria can ...

This capacity is intimately related to control of the cell cycle: cell size and growth rate determine the duration of the cell cycle, which must accommodate the initiation and completion of DNA ...

With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process called the cell cycle that scientists thought they thoroughly understood. But now it turns out there was more to know. Scientists ...

Somatic cell cycle consists of four phases while early embryonic cell cycle alternates between S and M phases without intervening G1 and G2 phases. Different models of cell cycle regulation ...

A new review paper titled "Cellular senescence: when growth stimulation meets cell cycle arrest" has been published in Aging. In this review, researcher Mikhail V. Blagosklonny, M.D., Ph.D., from ...

Post-mitotic neurons in the brain that re-enter the cell cycle quickly succumb to senescence, and this re-entry is more common in Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study published April 9 in ...
