A study led by the Cell Cycle and Cancer Group at the Vall d'Hebron Institute of Oncology (VHIO) has identified a ...

A previously unknown mechanism required for cells to start proliferating has been identified. A combination of mathematical modelling and cell-based experiments shows that the enzyme WEE1 switches off ...

A Nature study shows that the WEE1 kinase promotes cell cycle re-entry from quiescence by phosphorylating CDH1 to inhibit the ...

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 ...

In a tale of identities as divergent as "The Prince and the Pauper," a well-known cancer-causing gene also influences cells in a zombie-like state meant to prevent cancer. Scientists at Sanford ...

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 ...

A public-data reanalysis identified broad tumor-normal gene-expression changes in sinonasal squamous cell carcinoma and ...

Cancer cells that have lost one safeguard against DNA damage can become dependent on another, an enzyme called Wee1. Drugs ...

Bacterial cells do not wake up one morning and decide to become parents. But there is a point in their cell cycle—after growing sufficiently and replicating their genomes—when they split in two, ...
