In the late 1970s and 1980s, the flowering of molecular biology allowed cell ... As with other cell-cycle controls, checkpoints can also act at the level of local molecular interactions.

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 ...

Scientists have identified a new variant of the cell cycle that could provide insight into how diseases like cancer occur. Maggie Chen is a scientist and science journalist covering health, biology, ...

For most proteins, these two opposing processes are dynamically balanced during the cell cycle, holding each protein at a constant (steady state) level. For some proteins (for example, cyclins ...

Our cell biology researchers collaborate with molecular ... Our investigators have also shed light on how changes in the cell cycle — the cycle in which cells grow and divide — push normal cells ...

Their data included information on over 30,000 nuclei, each of which was assigned a score based on the level of expression of a set of about 350 cell cycle-related genes. They found that small ...
