Mitosis is usually shorter than meiosis. The process can take over 10 hours for mammalian cells in culture [2], budding yeast can take ~80 minutes to complete a cell cycle [3], whilst bacteria can ...

Prometaphase is an extremely dynamic part of the cell cycle. Microtubules rapidly assemble and disassemble as they grow out of the centrosomes, seeking out attachment sites at chromosome ...

With only half the DNA, when the parent cell combines with another parent cell, the proper amount of DNA is maintained. This solution is called meiosis. Mitosis describes the process by which the ...

The ability to identify cell cycle position through DNA content analysis is fundamental to investigations of cell cycle–regulated protein expression and assessment of perturbations in cell cycle ...
