The study of the cell cycle focuses on mechanisms that regulate the timing and frequency of DNA duplication and cell division. As a biological concept, the cell cycle is defined as the period ...

Cytokinesis is a key event in the cell cycle requiring tight coordination of mitotic spindle assembly, actomyosin contractility and membrane dynamics, but the mechanisms that regulate cytokinesis are ...

Cell cycle transitions in eukaryotes are driven by cyclin-dependent kinases (for example, Cdk1 and Cdk2), which are regulated by the availability of their cyclin partners (for example, CycA and ...

Harvest cells, want good single cell suspension Count cells Dispense aliquots of 1 million cells into labeled tubes Add 5 ml PBS and centrifuge for 5 min at 400 x g. Re-suspend cell pellet in 300 ul ...

Before a cell can divide, it must grow and make copies of all the organelles such as mitochondria and ribosomes. The cell must also replicate the chromosomes in the nucleus, then it can divide by ...

When looking at cells with a microscope, the length of different stages of the cell cycle can be estimated using the formula: \(\text{Length of time in phase}=\) \(\frac{\text{observed number of ...

This free eBook from Cell Signaling Technology explores the cell cycle and DNA damage and repair.

We have recently generated cell lines with resistance to both in-house and external CHK1 inhibitors and are currently investigating potential mechanisms of resistance. Whilst there is substrate ...

A life cycle is the series of stages something passes through during its lifetime. We also use the term for things that are not living, like cell phones. The life cycle for anything you buy includes ...
