Cell wall architecture and the role of wall teichoic acid in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The bacterium Staphylococcus aureus only synthesises peptidoglycan during cell division at the septum using a complex protein biosynthetic apparatus called the divisome.

Chromosome segregation impacts on cell growth and division site selection in Corynebacterium glutamicum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spatial and temporal regulation of bacterial cell division is imperative for the production of viable offspring. In many rod-shaped bacteria, regulatory systems such as the Min system and nucleoid occlusion ensure the high fidelity of midcell divisome ...

Endothelial cell division in angiogenic sprouts of differing cellular architecture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The vasculature of the zebrafish trunk is composed of tubes with different cellular architectures. Unicellular tubes form their lumen through membrane invagination and transcellular cell hollowing, whereas multicellular vessels become lumenized through a

Mutations in ANKLE2, a ZIKA Virus Target, Disrupt an Asymmetric Cell Division Pathway in Drosophila Neuroblasts to Cause Microcephaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The apical Par complex, which contains atypical protein kinase C (aPKC), Bazooka (Par-3), and Par-6, is required for establishing polarity during asymmetric division of neuroblasts in Drosophila, and its activity depends on L(2)gl.

Reconstruction of cell population dynamics using CFSE. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Quantifying cell division and death is central to many studies in the biological sciences. The fluorescent dye CFSE allows the tracking of cell division in vitro and in vivo and provides a rich source of information with which to test ...

Stem cell decisions:A twist of fate or a niche market? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Establishing and maintaining cell fate in the right place at the right time is a key requirement for normal tissue maintenance. Stem cells are at the core of this process.

Information homeostasis as a fundamental principle governing the cell division and death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
To express genetic information with minimal error is one of the key functions of a cell. Here we propose an information theory based phenomenological model for the expression of genetic information.

Reconstruction of the kinetochore: a prelude to meiosis

open access: yesCell 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 ...

How eggs arrest at metaphase II: MPF stabilisation plus APC/C inhibition equals Cytostatic Factor

open access: yesCell 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

open access: yesCell 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.
