Cell-cell adhesion-induced patterning in keratinocytes can be explained by just starvation and strong adhesion, Hokkaido University researchers find. Fingerprints are one of the best-recognised ...

When it’s time for an e. coli bacterium to divide, proteins inside the single-celled organism start to chase each other around. “There are two types of proteins doing this, collectively,” said ...

The curved shape of a zebrafish egg causes unequal cell divisions, creating larger cells near the animal pole and smaller ...

A large genetic screen has revealed how stem cells transform into brain cells, exposing hundreds of genes that make this ...

By editing thousands of genes in mouse stem cells, the scientists identified a list of over 300 that are crucial for neural differentiation.

The new method offers researchers a powerful new platform to investigate the molecular mechanisms that control oogenesis, the process by which egg cells develop, and lays important groundwork for ...

An international research team identified hundreds of genes essential for the development of brain cells, including one gene ...
