Mitosis is a cell division process in which genomic DNA replicates and separates into two new cells. Although it is essential in all eukaryotes, different species use different genes for mitosis. This ...

The process of mitosis has made more clear, thanks to recent research. A new study describes how Topo 2, an enzyme that disentangles DNA molecules and is essential for proper cell division. At this ...

Cell division is a process that scientists have been fascinated with since we first learned about cells. Through decades of study, scientists have come up with a basic narrative on how cells divide: ...

The activity on this page has been carefully designed by experts to help you gain a clearer understanding of exactly what mitosis is and how it unfolds. Mitosis will produce two daughter cells which ...

According to the theory old cells split into new cells and the formation of new cells is known as cell division or cell production. This was firstly observed by Flemming in 1882 but an extensive in ...

Sp1 is important for the transcription of many genes. Our previous studies have shown that Sp1 is degraded in normal cell, but it is preserved in cancer cells during mitosis and exists a priori in the ...
