Embryogenesis: Coordinating Cell Division with Gastrulation
Embryogenesis requires the production of sufficient cells, the correct placement of these cells within the embryo and the assignment to them of appropriate identities. Complications arise because cell division and cell migration seem incompatible. Mitosis requires the assembly and disassembly of a complex microtubule network to ensure faithful DNA segregation, and cytokinesis requires remodelin...
متن کاملCoordinating cell polarity with cell division in space and time.
Decisions of when and where to divide are crucial for cell survival and fate, and for tissue organization and homeostasis. The temporal coordination of mitotic events during cell division is essential to ensure that each daughter cell receives one copy of the genome. The spatial coordination of these events is also crucial because the cytokinetic furrow must be aligned with the axis of chromoso...
متن کاملPlant embryogenesis: Cell division forms a pattern
The recent discovery that another gene involved in plant embryogenesis encodes a probable regulator of membrane traffic demonstrates the central role of cell wall synthesis and deposition in plant development.
متن کاملEpithelial cell division in the Xenopus laevis embryo during gastrulation.
How vertebrate epithelial cells divide in vivo and how the cellular environment influences cell division is currently poorly understood. A sine qua non condition to study cell division in situ is the ease of observation of cell division. This is fulfilled in the Xenopus embryo at the gastrula stage where polarized epithelial cells divide with a high frequency at the surface of the organism. Rec...
متن کاملCoordinating Bacterial Cell Division with Nutrient Availability: a Role for Glycolysis
UNLABELLED Cell division in bacteria is driven by a cytoskeletal ring structure, the Z ring, composed of polymers of the tubulin-like protein FtsZ. Z-ring formation must be tightly regulated to ensure faithful cell division, and several mechanisms that influence the positioning and timing of Z-ring assembly have been described. Another important but as yet poorly understood aspect of cell divis...
