The protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network (Balch et al, 2008), consisting of a collection of molecular chaperones, ...

Cell division is one of the most thoroughly studied processes in biology, yet many of its details remain mysterious. A century-old puzzle surrounding the "crown" of cell division—the kinetochore ...

In two new studies, scientists at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered detailed blueprints of how certain molecular "gates" in human cells work—findings that could open doors to new ...

The study will interest researchers studying genome organisation in mitosis. Genomes assume a complex 3D architecture in the interphase cell nucleus. Yet, the molecular mechanisms that determine ...
