Tugging and pulling in asymmetric cell divisions
Tugging and pulling in asymmetric cell divisions n asymmetric divisions, the cell alters the normal process that centers the spindle in the mother cell, but how it regulates the timing of spindle movement is unclear. Now, on page 245, Labbé et al. describe a tethering system that resists premature movement of the mitotic spindle during asymmetric cell divisions in C. elegans embryogenesis. It w...
متن کاملConcise Review: Asymmetric Cell Divisions in Stem Cell Biology
Somatic stem cells are rare cells with unique properties residing in many organs and tissues. They are undifferentiated cells responsible for tissue regeneration and homeostasis, and contain both the capacity to self-renew in order to maintain their stem cell potential and to differentiate towards tissue-specific, specialized cells. However, the knowledge about the mechanisms controlling somati...
متن کاملMechanisms of asymmetric cell divisions in Drosophila melanogaster neuroblasts
Stem cells possess the properties of self-renewal and differentiation, and mainly rely on two strategies for division, including symmetric and asymmetric cell divisions. In this review, we summarize the latest progress on asymmetric cell divisions in Drosophila melanogaster neuroblasts (NBs), which focus on the establishment of cell polarity, mitotic spindle orientation, the asymmetric segregat...
متن کاملRetinoblastoma related1 regulates asymmetric cell divisions in Arabidopsis.
Formative, also called asymmetric, cell divisions produce daughter cells with different identities. Like other divisions, formative divisions rely first of all on the cell cycle machinery with centrally acting cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and their cyclin partners to control progression through the cell cycle. However, it is still largely obscure how developmental cues are translated at the ...
متن کاملControl of Asymmetric Cell Divisions during Root Ground Tissue Maturation
Controlling the production of diverse cell/tissue types is essential for the development of multicellular organisms such as animals and plants. The Arabidopsis thaliana root, which contains distinct cells/tissues along longitudinal and radial axes, has served as an elegant model to investigate how genetic programs and environmental signals interact to produce different cell/tissue types. In the...
