The Changing Lipidome during Cell Division

The Changing Lipidome during Cell Division

Cell division entails dramatic membrane rearrangements, but what is the role of lipids in the process? Eggert et al. explore the dynamics of the lipidome during cell division and provide new insights on the functions of specific lipids in cytokinesis.

Changing patterns of actin localization during cell division.

Changing patterns of actin localization have been studied on a light microscopic level by means of fluorescently labeled heavy meromyosin. The cellular distribution of actin is characterized by four major patterns, each of which corresponds to a particular phase of cell division. Long actin fibers are a prominent feature of the interphase cell. They disappear as the cell rounds up for mitosis a...

Transcriptome analysis during cell division in plants.

Using synchronized tobacco Bright Yellow-2 cells and cDNA-amplified fragment length polymorphism-based genomewide expression analysis, we built a comprehensive collection of plant cell cycle-modulated genes. Approximately 1,340 periodically expressed genes were identified, including known cell cycle control genes as well as numerous unique candidate regulatory genes. A number of plant-specific ...
