These proteins help facilitate chromosome segregation and are involved in the cell cycle changes during sporulation, demonstrating the complexity of interactions that govern bacterial chromosome ...

Nucleoid: The region within a bacterial cell where the chromosome is located, typically not membrane-bound. Chromosome Segregation: The process by which replicated chromosomes are separated into ...

Overall, our study underscores the dynamic nature of chromosome stiffness, subject to changes influenced by the cell cycle and age. (A) Oocytes after zona pellucida removal. Left panel: MI oocyte.

When Kostas Konstantinidis proved that many bacteria—like plants and animals—are organized into species, he upended a long-held scientific belief. Scientists widely believed that bacteria ...

However which bacteria confer benefit and mechanisms of action remain poorly defined. Dendritic cells, which are pivotal in early bacterial recognition, tolerance induction, and shaping of T cell ...

Previous studies have shown that this modification is required for the dynamic regulation of essential cellular functions, such as the cell's life cycle ... located on the X chromosome, and ...

The PhoP response regulator and the cognate sensor kinase PhoQ form one of the two-component signal transduction systems that is highly conserved in bacteria. The PhoP/PhoQ system is a crucial ...

Hartmut received his PhD from the University of Vienna for his work on ubiquitination and the cell cycle carried out in the group of Jan-Michael Peters. In his postdoctoral work in the laboratory of ...

In females with two X chromosomes – one inherited from each parent – one of the two X chromosomes is randomly silenced in every cell through a process called X-inactivation. When this process occurs, ...

Uncovering the Role of Y Chromosome Genes in Male Fertility in Mice Jan. 23, 2025 — Researchers have uncovered which genes on the Y chromosome regulate the development of sperm and impact ...
