A GENETIC SCREEN FOR MUTATIONS AFFECTING CELL DIVISION IN THE ARABIDOPSIS THALIANA EMBRYO IDENTIFIES SEVEN LOCI REQUIRED FOR CYTOKINESIS.

A Genetic Screen for Mutations Affecting Cell Division in the Arabidopsis thaliana Embryo Identifies Seven Loci Required for Cytokinesis.

Cytokinesis in plants involves the formation of unique cellular Glasses structures such as the phragmoplast and the cell plate, both of which are required to divide the cell after nuclear division.In order to isolate genes that are involved in de novo cell wall formation, we performed a large-scale, microscope-based screen for Arabidopsis mutants t

Mitotic-Spindle Organizing Protein MztA Mediates Septation Signaling by Suppressing the Regulatory Subunit of Protein Phosphatase 2A-ParA in Aspergillus nidulans

The proper timing and positioning of cytokinesis/septation is crucial for hyphal growth and conidiation in Aspergillus nidulans.The septation initiation network (SIN) components are a conserved spindle pole body (SPB) localized signaling cascade and the terminal kinase complex SidB-MobA, which must localize on the SPB in this pathway to trigger sep

CENTRAL OBESITY AS A PREDICTOR OF CORONARY ARTERY OCCLUSION

Abstract    INTRODUCTION: Central obesity is one of the coronary artery diseases (CAD) risk factors that has been regarded, recently.There are several methods for measuring abdominal obesity.We used abdominal diameter index (ADI) as an index of abdominal obesity and studied its relation to CAD.   METHODS: 180 patients [90 male a
