Cytokinesis in eukaryotes.
Cytokinesis is the final event of the cell division cycle, and its completion results in irreversible partition of a mother cell into two daughter cells. Cytokinesis was one of the first cell cycle events observed by simple cell biological techniques; however, molecular characterization of cytokinesis has been slowed by its particular resistance to in vitro biochemical approaches. In recent yea...
متن کاملCytokinesis in prokaryotes and eukaryotes: common principles and different solutions.
Cytokinesis requires duplication of cellular structures followed by bipolarization of the predivisional cell. As a common principle, this applies to prokaryotes as well as eukaryotes. With respect to eukaryotes, the discussion has focused mainly on Saccharomyces cerevisiae and on Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Escherichia coli and to a lesser extent Bacillus subtilis have been used as prokaryotic e...
متن کاملCytokinesis
Cytokinesis — the division of one cell into two daughters — is a complex event which, despite being studied for more than one hundred years, remains poorly understood. Although the end result of cytokinesis — two cells — is the same in all cell types, there are many different ways that cell division can occur. Most animal cells divide by forming a central constriction that pinches the cell into...
متن کاملPhospholipid biosynthesis in eukaryotes
The objective of this chapter is to provide an overview of eukaryotic phospholipid biosynthesis at an advanced level. Phospholipids make up the essential milieu of cellular membranes and act as a barrier for entry of compounds into cells. Phospholipids also function as precursors of second messengers such as diacylglycerol (DG) and inositol1,4,5-P3 which is covered in Chapter 12. A third, and u...
متن کاملAutophagy in unicellular eukaryotes.
Cells need a constant supply of precursors to enable the production of macromolecules to sustain growth and survival. Unlike metazoans, unicellular eukaryotes depend exclusively on the extracellular medium for this supply. When environmental nutrients become depleted, existing cytoplasmic components will be catabolized by (macro)autophagy in order to re-use building blocks and to support ATP pr...
