Early embryonic cell division in large, yolk-rich cells has long defied traditional models of cytokinesis. New research reveals that instead of relying on a fully closed contractile ring, cells can ...

The presented findings are important for the field of cell-cycle control. They provide new insights into the origin of cell size variability in budding yeast. The strength of evidence is solid.

Cell division is an essential process for all life on earth, yet the exact mechanisms by which cells divide during early embryonic development have remained elusive – particularly for egg-laying ...

Despite the immense amount of genetic material present in each cell, around 3 billion base pairs in humans, this material needs to be accurately divided in two and allocated in equal quantities. The ...

Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center and the University of Oxford have found that a cellular housekeeping function called autophagy—by which cell components are broken down and recycled—plays a ...

Although plants share core cell division mechanisms with other eukaryotes, their unique features, such as acentrosomal spindle formation and cytokinesis via the phragmoplast, suggest the existence of ...

Netflix’s forthcoming animated series Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Deathwatch draws from the lore established by Ubisoft’s Splinter Cell games and their canonical ancillary material to tell a new story ...

Scientists at the Ruđer Bošković Institute (RBI) in Zagreb, Croatia, have discovered that the protein CENP-E, long believed to act as a motor dragging chromosomes into place during cell division, in ...

Before cells can divide by mitosis, they first need to replicate all of their chromosomes, so that each of the daughter cells can receive a full set of genetic material. Scientists have until now ...

Living alone in Poland, Sam Fisher (Liev Schreiber) is no longer involved with the Fourth Echelon NSA program. However, when Zinnia McKenna (Kirby Howell-Baptiste) has her mission go sideways, she ...

With as much action as stealth, it doesn't really feel like Splinter Cell, but Deathwatch is still worth watching. PC Gamer's got your back Our experienced team dedicates many hours to every review, ...

The universe of stealth and covert operations created by Tom Clancy is returning to the forefront of global entertainment with an ambitious new project. Produced by Ubisoft Film & Television, a new ...
