The bacterial cell cycle involves the formation of new cells through the replication of DNA and partitioning of cellular components into two daughter cells. In prokaryotes, reproduction is always asexual, although extensive genetic recombination in the form of horizontal gene transfer takes place, as w...
The cell cycle is a series of events that occur to accurately replicate genetic material and cellular contents into daughter cells. This regulation is precisely monitored and controlled [1]. Nevertheless, some cells can undergo alternative cellular divisions or mitotic cycle variations, generating aneupl...
