The cell cycle has been the subject of intense investigation during two periods since Virchow's 1855 realization that cells only arise from pre-existing cells. At the turn of the century ...

To accomplish this challenging feat, origins of replication are prepared for 'firing' exclusively in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. After S phase is complete, replication origins do not fire ...

When looking at cells with a microscope, the length of different stages of the cell cycle can be estimated using the formula: \(\text{Length of time in phase}=\) \(\frac{\text{observed number of ...

A life cycle is the series of stages something passes through during its lifetime. We also use the term for things that are not living, like cell phones. The life cycle for anything you buy includes ...

Proliferating animal cells maintain a stable size distribution over generations despite fluctuations in cell growth and division size. Previously, we showed that cell size control involves both cell ...
