The centromere is necessary for the transport of chromosomes during cell division and, therefore, for the correct ...

The journey started with an enigma in the zebrafish embryo: some endothelial cells, actively involved in the initial stages ...

Researchers discovered that a long-misunderstood protein plays a key role in helping chromosomes latch onto the right “tracks” during cell division. Instead of acting like a motor, it works more like ...

A microscopic structure in mammalian egg cells called a meiotic spindle has one crucial job—and during egg maturation, it has only a few hours to do it properly. What happens in those few hours has ...

High-speed machining requires exceptional precision from every machine tool component. At the heart of this performance lies the spindle. Selecting one of the best spindles for high-speed machining is ...

The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) announces the opening of registration for the Science Research Conference (SRC): Mitosis: Spindle Assembly and Function. This ...

The transition from interphase into mitosis is accompanied by a massive re‐organization of cellular architecture. The microtubular cytoskeleton is collapsed and reorganized into the mitotic spindle to ...

The researchers made experimental spindles and whorls based on 3D scans of the pebbles. Yashuv and Grosman, PLOS ONE, 2024 under CC-BY 4.0 When faced with an assortment of 12,000-year-old perforated ...

When I manually switch the spindle on, it functions as expected but the radio button bounces back to off. To switch the spindle off, I have to click the CW button then Off. The button then bounces ...

PBX1 is a transcription factor that regulates a variety of genes, involved in intracellular lipid metabolism, cell proliferation, and other pathways. The promoting and inhibiting function of PBX1 in ...
