In animal cells, mitotic cell division involves a highly coordinated series of events that lead to the formation of two daughter cells. It has been observed in many types of cells that actin and ...
Chromatin bridges are strands of incompletely segregated DNA connecting the anaphase poles or daughter nuclei. If unresolved, chromatin bridges can break in cytokinesis leading to micronuclei ...
Cytokinesis is the final step of the process of cell division, by which the two new cells are physically separated. This process relies on a structure called the cytokinetic ring, which needs to be ...
How does the cell organize multi-step cytokinetic processes to successfully separate cells after division? The final step in cell division is cytokinesis, where the cytoplasm divides into two after ...
As cell biologists, Université de Montréal professor Greg FitzHarris and his Ph.D. student Lia Paim are very interested in fertility and what happens inside the eggs and embryos of the mice they study ...
