Cell division is a complex process. At the heart of this complexity is a membraneless organelle called the centrosome, which ...

BENGALURU: Scientists from IISc’s Department of Microbiology and Cell Biology (MCB) have found a way to use blue light to ...

LISA uses light-induced Aurora A clustering to stimulate microtubule formation, restore spindle assembly, and rescue cell ...

A previously unknown protein, hidden in RNA thought not to encode proteins, helps cells divide correctly. The RNA molecule ...

Scientists at the Indian Institute of Science have pioneered a method using blue light to trigger cell division, a ...

Modern technologies have made it possible to uncover a growing "hidden proteome"—proteins encoded by parts of the genome that ...

Researchers at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) have developed a new technique called Light-Induced Spindle Activation ...

Cell division, a process fundamental to life, still holds surprises. Researchers from the University of Zurich and the ...

If you took high school biology, you probably learned about cell division: a crucial process in all life forms officially called mitosis. For over one hundred years, students have learned that during ...

Animals and fungi predominantly use two different modes of cell division -- called open and closed mitosis, respectively. A new study has shown that different species of Ichthyosporea -- marine ...

If cells in cell cultures grow while being treated with division-suppressing agents, their growth becomes excessive and they permanently lose their ability to divide. However, if the cells are treated ...
