Can eukaryotic cells monitor the presence of unreplicated DNA?
Cell Division, 2007 Completion of DNA replication before mitosis is essential for genome stability and cell viability. Cellular controls called checkpoints act as surveillance mechanisms capable of detecting errors and blocking cell cycle progression to allow time for those

The role of CDK in the initiation step of DNA replication in eukaryotes
Cell Division, 2007 Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate the progression of the cell cycle in eukaryotes. One of the major roles of CDK is to promote chromosomal DNA replication.

Reconstruction of the kinetochore: a prelude to meiosis
Cell Division, 2007 In eukaryotic organisms, chromosomes are spatially organized within the nucleus. Such nuclear architecture provides a physical framework for the genetic activities of chromosomes, and changes its functional organization as the cell moves through the ...

Cell Division: The Prehistorichore? [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 The recent discovery of a novel kinetochore has important implications for our understanding of the evolution of chromosome segregation systems and also for the treatment of devastating parasitic diseases.

Cell division in Corynebacterineae [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014 Bacterial cells must coordinate a number of events during the cell cycle. Spatio-temporal regulation of bacterial cytokinesis is indispensable for the production of viable, genetically identical offspring. In many rod-shaped bacteria, precise midcell assembly of the division machinery relies on inhibitory systems such as Min and Noc.

How eggs arrest at metaphase II: MPF stabilisation plus APC/C inhibition equals Cytostatic Factor
Cell Division, 2007 Oocytes from higher chordates, including man and nearly all mammals, arrest at metaphase of the second meiotic division before fertilization. This arrest is due to an activity that has been termed 'Cytostatic Factor'.

Merotelic attachments and non-homologous end joining are the basis of chromosomal instability
Cell Division, 2010 Although the large majority of solid tumors show a combination of mitotic spindle defects and chromosomal instability, little is known about the mechanisms that govern the initial steps in tumorigenesis.

p27kip1 at the crossroad between actin and microtubule dynamics
Cell Division, 2019 The p27kip1 protein, mainly known as a negative regulator of cell proliferation, has also been involved in the control of other cellular processes, including the regulation of cytoskeleton dynamics.

Cell Division, 2019 The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi-subunit, multifunctional ubiquitin ligase that controls the temporal degradation of numerous cell cycle regulatory proteins to direct the unidirectional cell cycle phases.

JAB1/CSN5: a new player in cell cycle control and cancer
Cell Division, 2010 c-Jun activation domain-binding protein-1 (Jab1) acts as a modulator of intracellular signaling and affects cellular proliferation and apoptosis, through its existence as a monomer or as the fifth component of the constitutive photomorphogenic-9 ...
