Cell Size Control in Yeast [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Cell size is an important adaptive trait that influences nearly all aspects of cellular physiology. Despite extensive characterization of the cell-cycle regulatory network, the molecular mechanisms coupling cell growth to division, and thereby controlling cell size, have remained elusive.

Photosynthetic Characteristics of Smaller and Larger Cell Size-Fractioned Phytoplankton Assemblies in the Daya Bay, Northern South China Sea

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Cell size of phytoplankton is known to influence their physiologies and, consequently, marine primary production. To characterize the cell size-dependent photophysiology of phytoplankton, we comparably explored the photosynthetic characteristics of ...

The relationship between cell size and cell fate in Volvox carteri [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
In Volvox carteri development, visibly asymmetric cleavage divisions set apart large embryonic cells that will become asexual reproductive cells (gonidia) from smaller cells that will produce terminally differentiated somatic cells. Three mechanisms have

Cell cycle length, cell size, and proliferation rate in hydra stem cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
We have analyzed the cell cycle parameters of interstitial cells in Hydra oligactis. Three subpopulations of cells with short, medium, and long cell cycles were identified. Short-cycle cells are stem cells; medium-cycle cells are precursors to nematocyte

Cell-size control

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2021
A fundamental and still mysterious question in cell biology is "How do cells know how big they are?". The fact that they do is evident from the strict maintenance of size homeostasis within populations of cells and has been verified by a variety of creative experiments over the past 100 years.

Cell Size Control in Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2012
Like eukaryotes, bacteria must coordinate division with growth to ensure cells are the appropriate size for a given environmental condition or developmental fate. As single-celled organisms, nutrient availability is one of the strongest influences on bacterial cell size.

Cell Size Regulation in Mammalian Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2007
The regulation of cell growth and proliferation is fundamental for animal development and homeostasis but the mechanisms that coordinate cell growth with cell cycle progression are poorly understood. One possibility is that "cell-size checkpoints" act to delay division until cells have achieved a minimal size or mass however, the existence of such ...

Is Cell Size Important? [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2007
Cell size plays an indirect role in cell proliferation, as cells must double in size before dividing. Cell size is largely determined by the activity of RNA polymerase I that controls ribosomal RNA synthesis and ribosome biogenesis. The type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) and its docking protein, insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1 ...
