Cell Division Intersects with Cell Geometry
Single-celled organisms monitor cell geometry and use this information to control cell division. Such geometry-sensing mechanisms control both the decision to enter into cell division and the physical orientation of the chromosome segregation machinery, suggesting that signals controlling cell division may be linked to the mechanisms that ensure proper chromosome segregation.
متن کاملInfluence of Cell Geometry on Division-Plane Positioning
The spatial organization of cells depends on their ability to sense their own shape and size. Here, we investigate how cell shape affects the positioning of the nucleus, spindle and subsequent cell division plane. To manipulate geometrical parameters in a systematic manner, we place individual sea urchin eggs into microfabricated chambers of defined geometry (e.g., triangles, rectangles, and el...
متن کاملSpatial pattern of cell geometry and cell-division orientation in zebrafish lens epithelium
Cell proliferation is a key regulator of tissue morphogenesis. We examined cell proliferation and cell division in zebrafish lens epithelium by visualizing cell-cycle phases and nuclear positions, using fluorescent-labeled geminin and histone proteins. Proliferation was low in the anterior region of lens epithelium and higher in the marginal zone anterior to the equator, suggesting that the pro...
متن کاملCell division.
Cell Division is an open access, peer-reviewed journal that encompasses all aspects of cell cycle control and cancer in eukaryotes. Cell Division provides an online forum for the cell-cycle community by: publishing articles on all exciting aspects of cell-cycle research bridging the gap between models of cell cycle regulation, development, and cancer biology. This forum is driven by special...
