The most obvious difference between interphase and mitosis involves the appearance of a cell's chromosomes. During interphase, individual chromosomes are not visible, and the chromatin appears ...

Chromosomes that lack centromeres segregate randomly during mitosis and are eventually lost ... centromere is a region of highly specialized chromatin. Although significant differences have ...

Mitosis orchestrates eukaryotic cell division, maintaining genetic fidelity and playing a key role in development, tissue homeostasis, and cancer progression.

An article by UAB professor Joan-Ramon Daban analyzes in depth the physical problems associated with DNA packaging that have ...

Thus, in the reconstruction of the four daughter nuclei, two of them contain more chromatin than the other two. The resulting pollen grains, however, look alike. 14. In the somatic mitosis there are ...

outside their traditional habitat of chromatin in the nucleus. We are investigating the function of these epigenetic modifiers on microtubule and actin dynamics during mitosis and during quiescence, ...

Consequently, mitosis-related defects have been overlooked as therapeutic ... and motility and ultimately tumor growth and invasiveness. Chromatin modifiers such as SETD2 methylate microtubules and ...
