The mechanism of division in bacteria differs from that of eukaryotes, and the control of their cell cycle is also somewhat different, although again it is linked with DNA replication. Although ...

While the multiciliation cycle followed the transcriptional phases of the traditional cell cycle, DNA replication did not occur and the cells did not end up dividing. Instead, they grew a bunch of ...

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 image shows the replication cycle of HIV/SIV. The virus replicates in the body's own CD4+ T helper cells. In doing so, it introduces its own genetic information into the DNA of the host cell.

At the molecular level, the cell cycle depends on the coordination of many proteins to ferry the cell from growth and DNA replication all the way to cell division. Dysregulation of proteins can ...

NTNU researchers identified an oral antiviral cocktail that blocks enterovirus replication in human cells and mini-organs. The combination, previously tested for safety, showed no adverse effects on ...

Checkpoint activation results in the stabilization of stalled forks, prevents further origin firing, and creates a cellular milieu that promotes the resolution of replication fork blocks before entry ...

Cell aging has always been an important topic in biological research, and telomere shortening is one of the key issues in cell aging studies.
