It all happens during hibernation, said lead author Marina Blanco of Duke. When winter sets in in the wild, dwarf lemurs ...

Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to ...

Scientists have developed a breakthrough technique to directly convert skin cells into neurons, bypassing the need for stem ...

New research from an international team of plant biologists, led by researchers at the VIB-UGent Center for Plant Systems ...

All cells are produced from other cells by the process of cell division. Cell division occurs when one cell divides to produce two new cells. Unicellular organisms use cell division to reproduce.

With the theoretical part extended, this paper would be of interest to cell biologists and biophysicists working on asymmetric partitioning during cell division. Asymmetric partition of fate ...

Dwarf lemurs, however, have a way to extend their telomeres. A study published in the journal Biology Letters suggests that ...

The five phases of mitosis and cell division tightly coordinate the movements of hundreds of proteins. How did early biologists unravel this complex dance of chromosomes? The most obvious ...
