Precise and rapid DNA segregation is required for proper inheritance of genetic material. In most bacteria and archaea, this process is assured by a broadly conserved mitotic-like apparatus in which a ...

Mitochondria, famously known as the powerhouse of the cell, are important cellular structures that are vital for their role of generating energy. Mitochondria are "dynamic", meaning they constantly ...

We investigated the report of Zweifel and Hagstrom that only a portion of marine bacteria contain nucleoids-the DNA-containing regions of procaryotic cells-and that such bacteria correspond to the ...

Osaka, Japan – Mitochondria, famously known as the powerhouse of the cell, are important cellular structures that are vital for their role of generating energy. Mitochondria are “dynamic”, meaning ...

Investigations over many decades have revealed that nucleoids of higher plant plastids are highly dynamic with regard to their number, their structural organization and protein composition. Membrane ...

Mitochondria, the cell’s powerhouse, exist at the center of cellular biosynthetic pathways and play a major role in energy production, controlling cell death and oxidative stress. Defects in ...
