Scientists at EMBL have captured how human chromosomes fold into their signature rod shape during cell division, using a ...

Among the many marvels of life is the cell’s ability to divide and thus enable organisms to grow and renew themselves.

How Chromosomes Shape Up for Cell Division Mar. 24, 2025 — For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead ...

Researchers at City of Hope have found that cell mutations are necessary but not always sufficient for tumors to form.

Ten years ago, nobody knew that Asgard archaea even existed. In 2015, however, researchers examining deep-sea sediments ...

With the theoretical part extended, this paper would be of interest to cell biologists and biophysicists working on asymmetric partitioning during cell division. Asymmetric partition of fate ...

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process can lead to cell death or diseases like cancer. A new study has shown ...
