cell divisionMycoplasma sppgenomesBacterial cell division has been studied mainly in model systems such as Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, where it is described as a complex process with the participation of a group of proteins which assemble into a multiprotein complex called the septal ring...
The enzyme was previously known only for its involvement in cell division, or mitosis, a process that involves the creation of two daughter cells from one parental cell. Specifically, mitosis is the phase ofcell divisionin which the nucleus, which holds all of the cell's genetic material, div...
RT-PCR analysis of the expression of genes involved in cell division. This study provides insight into the biological specificities of invasive micropapillary carcinoma of the breast (IMPC), an entity characterized by cell polarity inversion and frequent lymphovascular invasion and axillary lymph node ...
Enterococcus faecalis divlVA (divIVAEf) is an essential gene implicated in cell division and chromosome segregation. This gene was disrupted by insertional inactivation creating E. faecalis JHSR1, which was viable only when a wild-type copy of divlVAEf was expressed in trans, confirming the essen...
ClpP, ClpX, impacts transcription of only a restricted number of genes involved in peptidoglycan synthesis, cell division, and type seven secretion. Finally, we demonstrate that ClpX localizes in single foci in close proximity to the division septum lending support to the idea that ClpX plays a ...
This work concerns an aspect of spatial regulation of cell division, the development of the preprophase band (PPB) of microtubules. The PPB is significant in plant development because its position in the dividing cell indicates where the new cell wall will be inserted-an important site for contr...
In contrast, several genes involved in cell division and primary wall synthesis were more abundantly transcribed in LS wood with high MFA. Conclusions Microarray expression profiles in Pinus radiata juvenile wood with contrasting stiffness has shed more light on the transcriptional control of microfibril...
MicroRNA (miRNA) regulates gene expression in many cellular events, yet functions of only a few miRNAs are known in C. elegans. We analyzed the function of mir-35-41 unique to the worm, and show here that mir-35 regulates the G1/S transition of intestina
Analysis of the number of dividing cells in Arabidopsis root tips showed that much fewer dividing cells in Lat B-treated atfh8 plants than wild-type plants, which indicates that AtFH8 was involved in cell division. Actin cytoskeleton in root meristem of atfh8-1 was more sensitive to LatB ...
Temperature-sensitive mutants defective in cell division were isolated after localised mutagenesis of the terminus region of the Escherichia coli chromosome. The defective gene in one of these mutants, dicA , was mapped at 34.9 min by linkage with manA and with three physically characterized Tn 10 ...
