Scientists have uncovered an unexpected function for a crucial protein involved in cell division. Reported in two consecutive publications, the finding challenges long-accepted models and standard ...

Cell is a fundamental unit of life that is relayed via mitosis. The essence of mitosis is to segregate parental genomes encoded in sister chromatides into two daughter cells, such that each of them ...

Researchers have found a new function for one of the proteins involved with chromosome segregation during cell division. A group of Dartmouth researchers has found a new function for one of the ...

In a new study, researchers from the University of Copenhagen have discovered two important functions of a protein called RTEL1 during cell division. The researchers hope that the new knowledge will ...

We have studied a naturally occurring small-molecule antimitotic called diazonamide A. Diazonamide A is highly effective at blocking spindle assembly in mammalian cell culture and does so through a ...
