anaphase, and telophase. While mitosis is taking place, there is no cell growth and all of the cellular energy is focused on cell division. During prophase, the replicated pairs of chromosomes ...

It also touches on the implications of mitosis in healing and the potential consequences of its disruption, such as cancer or damage from radiation. Keywords mitosis, cell division, chromosomes, DNA, ...

Scientists at EMBL have captured how human chromosomes fold into their signature rod shape during cell division, using a ...

involves tightly coordinated movements of a cell's DNA. This page describes the major phases of mitosis, the most common form of cell division.

For successful cell division, chromosomal DNA needs to be packed into compact rod-shaped structures. Defects in this process ...

During this stage, one set of chromosomes is pulled to the sides of the cell and the nucleus divides. The phases of mitosis are known as prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. You do not ...

The chromosome pairs separate; half of the chromosomes move toward one end of the cell, the other half, to the other end. The chromosomes' sister chromatids do not separate as they do in mitosis.

For instance, acute inhibition of Plk1 at anaphase onset revealed its essential ... of a novel mode of signal transduction in interphase cells that dictates the speed and fidelity of the subsequent ...
