Research into cell cycle regulation and size control in microorganisms has yielded a nuanced understanding of how these entities maintain homeostasis and synchronise growth with division. In both ...
The regulation of the cell cycle is a fundamental process ensuring the accurate replication and division of cells. Central to this regulation are the Cdc25 phosphatases, which activate ...

TGFβ/ACTIVIN-SMAD2/3-EZH2 cooperates with OCT4 and NANOG in self-renewing hPSCs to keep CDKIs in an epigenetically poised state for rapid activation. Upon the initiation of endoderm differentiation ...
The awe-inspiring process of cell division can turn a fertilized egg into a baby -- or a cancerous cell into a malignant tumor. With so much at stake, nature keeps it tightly controlled in a process ...

The life cycle of a protein

A protein’s life is anything but simple. Discover how transcription, translation, folding, modification, and degradation work together to preserve proteome integrity.
Inside the human airway, a certain cell type reigns supreme: multiciliated cells, decorated with dozens of hair-like cilia all beating in tandem. These cells are responsible for clearing out foreign ...
Arteriovenous malformations, a hallmark of hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia, may be driven by endothelial cell-cycle acceleration via CDK6, suggesting potential for repurposing CDK6 inhibitors.
