Scientists at EPFL have developed CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that makes centrioles and cilia visible inside living cells, ...

This news release is available in German. The duplication of cellular contents and their distribution to two daughter cells during cell division are amongst the most fundamental features of all life ...

All life on earth depends upon the process of mitosis or cell division in which the chromosomal content of a cell is equally divided between two new cells. For mitosis to occur, the chromosomes in ...

Mitosis is the process by which the genetic information encoded on chromosomes is equally distributed to two daughter cells, a fundamental feature of all life on earth. Scientists now examine how ...

Researchers at EPFL have created CenSpark, a fluorescent probe that selectively labels centrioles and cilia in living cells across species. The tool enables unprecedented live imaging without genetic ...

Centrioles are cylindrical structures involved in the generation of microtubules - fibers inside of cells that form a network to provide structure and shape to cells and to mediate transport processes ...

Centrioles are cylindrical structures involved in the generation of microtubules—fibers inside of cells that form a network to provide structure and shape to cells and to mediate transport processes.

New findings from a team of investigators at Johns Hopkins Medicine have ruled out a mechanism that scientists have long believed controls the number of hairlike structures, called cilia, protruding ...

One of the wonders of cell biology is its symmetry. Mammalian cells have one nucleus and one cell membrane, and most humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes. One of the wonders of cell biology is its ...
