This process involves replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the ... eukaryotic cells may divide via either mitosis or meiosis.

Recent work has clarified how higher eukaryotic cells 'licence' DNA replication precisely once per cycle. An inhibitor, geminin, prevents replication before mitosis by inhibiting the replication ...

These CENP-A proteins ensure that divided genetic information is kept intact during mitosis.

Original DNA template - DNA is a double helix made of two complementary strands. Each strand can be used as a template to create a new DNA molecule. Free DNA nucleotides – needed to form the new ...

The cell undergoes a type of cell division called mitosis. In mitosis, two cells called daughter cells are produced, each identical to the parent cell. When looking at cells with a microscope ...

Checkpoint activation results in the stabilization of stalled forks, prevents further origin firing, and creates a cellular milieu that promotes the resolution of replication fork blocks before entry ...
