Researchers uncover mechanism of plasma membrane remodeling that drives mitotic cell rounding
During cell division, adherent animal cells round up to create the precise spatial geometry required for accurate chromosome ...
Canadian and British researchers have discovered that chromosomes play an active role in animal cell division. This occurs at a precise stage - cytokinesis - when the cell splits into two new daughter ...

From single cells to complex creatures: New study points to origins of animal multicellularity
Animals, from worms and sponges to jellyfish and whales, contain anywhere from a few thousand to tens of trillions of nearly genetically identical cells. Depending on the organism, these cells arrange ...

A starting signal for cell division: Molecular switch ensures that cells divide at the right time
About 100 cells divide every second in our body. A key protein in cell division is a protein kinase termed Plk1, because it activates other proteins involved in this process. Plk1 is also ...
