A team led by Professor Kazuhiro Maeshima of the National Institute of Genetics (ROIS) and SOKENDAI in Japan has developed a ...

Visualization of the genome (green) and a single gene (magenta) in a human cell nucleus, with genomic motions mapped by arrows and an example of a gene trajectory highlighted as a colored curve.

This half of the screen illustrates mitosis—the division of a cell's nucleus. Along with cytokinesis ... Though the genetic code of a human being is contained within 46 chromosomes, only ...

This process typically takes place in the nucleus, so the cytoplasmic cDNA lacked an explanation. After detecting cDNA of Alu, the most abundant retrotransposon in the human genome, in the cytoplasm ...

Each day, a human adult loses on average 50 to 70 billion cells, which die from natural causes alone. New cells replace lost ...

The nucleus of a germline stem cell undergoes two divisions, firstly separating homologous chromosomes and secondly separating chromatids. Haploid gametes contain 23 single chromosomes.

As warehouses go, nuclei are more like libraries than bank vaults. Too many cellular components need access to the genome to lock it down like Fort Knox. Instead, large groupings of more than 1,000 ...

Wenzhou Medical University and collaborating institutions have identified a population of human neural retinal stem-like ...

Researchers have developed a laboratory model that mimics the pathological aggregation of TDP-43, a key protein in ALS and ...

As viewed from a human perspective ... Mitosis describes the process by which the nucleus of a cell divides to create two new nuclei, each containing an identical copy of DNA.

A novel technique to visualize gene-active and gene-repressive DNA regions in living cells, developed by a ...
