A team of scientists studying cell division developed a special light microscopy system and used it to analyze the molecular density of cellular environments. Their results provide a novel insight ...
Team discovers transient rise in depletion attraction contributes to mitotic chromosome condensation
(A) Histone staining images and OI-DIC density imaging of human living cells in the interphase (the phase between cell divisions, left) and mitotic phase (right). The bottom two rows are OI-DIC ...
Japanese researchers report a new ion detector, MARIO. Using it, they show that changes in the intracellular concentration of free magnesium ions (Mg 2+) is critical for the chromosome folding that ...
A new study challenges prevalent models of chromosome formation during mitotic cell division. The study compared the dimensions of chromosomes in yeasts and humans and found that not only is the width ...
Chromosomes are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells. Each chromosome is made of protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Passed from ...
