The size and shape of the chromosomes are variable in the different phases of cell cycle. Chromosomes in the interphase of cell appear as thin, coiled, elastic and thread-like structures. This thread-like stainable interphase chromosome is called chromatin. During the mitotic or meiotic cell division, the chromatin materials become thicker […]

Cell Cycle Checkpoints in Regulation of Cell Division and Cancer
What is cell cycle checkpoint? Every cell in our body pass through a series of different stages in a cyclic manner called cell cycle. Cell cycle is a sequential step that taking place in a cell leading to the accurate duplication of genetic materials (DNA), precise separation of replicated genetic […]
