  • The virus enters the host liver cell and is transported into the nucleus of the liver cell. (hepatitisprohelp.com)
  • Collision between replication and transcription is considered especially problematic, as each are catalyzed by large multiprotein machines, and can occur co-directionally, when the replication fork and transcription machinery are moving in the same direction, or on the leading strand and is head-on, when the fork and transcription are moving towards each other.

  • Quantitative fluorescence microscopy and transient transfection in the presence of aphidicolin, an inhibitor of DNA replication, show that CENP-A can assemble into centromeres in the absence of DNA replication. (rupress.org)

  • The cell nucleus contains nearly all of the cell's genome. (wikipedia.org)
  • 649 Together, these membranes serve to separate the cell's genetic material from the rest of the cell contents, and allow the nucleus to maintain an environment distinct from the rest of the cell. (wikipedia.org)
  • Inside a cell, a single protein emerges from from the cell's protein-making machinery, then another, and another. (acs.org)
  • DNA that replicates at distinct times during S-phase is also spatially separated in the nucleus. (fsu.edu)
  • 2) in those centers, p53 binds site-specifically to the viral genome and 3) infection of p53 knockout cells show dramatic decreases in viral titers, in viral DNA replication and in viral protein expression. (uidaho.edu)
  • Immunofluorescent labelling and confocal microscopy revealed the changes in cell morphology, destruction of actin cytoskeleton and cell lysis as the final stage of infection. (elis.sk)
  • This study provides a comprehensive network model of IAV infection in human cells, identifying functional host targets for pan-viral HDT. (cdc.gov)
  • Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection results from 1 of 2 similar retroviruses (HIV-1 and HIV-2) that destroy CD4+ lymphocytes and impair cell-mediated immunity, increasing risk of certain infections and cancers. (msdmanuals.com)
  • [ 5 , 6 ] In a localized primary infection, the virus penetrates the mucosal epithelium and invades the cells of the basal layer, where the viral DNA inserts into the host DNA. (medscape.com)
  • Finally, 16 compounds targeting our identified host factors suppress IAV replication, with two targeting CDK2 and FLT3 showing pan-antiviral activity across influenza and coronavirus families. (cdc.gov)
  • Cloned nuclei are plucked from a comfortable, differentiated cell and thrust into an egg primed for embryonic development. (rupress.org)
  • For a frog nucleus, part of that switch is a conversion into embryonic DNA replication mode, say Jean-Marc Lemaitre, Marcel Méchali, and colleagues (CNRS, Montpellier, France). (rupress.org)
  • But a frog's embryonic divisions differ from mature divisions in another sense: they take only 30 minutes each, in part because they use many more replication origins. (rupress.org)
  • This, in turn, creates a clonal population of a single abnormal cell. (medscape.com)
  • In particular, it pursues a complex lifecycle with modes of cell division that differ at different lifecycle stages. (europa.eu)
  • Various phases of activity within a cell leading to division are called the cell cycle. (icr.org)
  • Whereas in protozoa the single cell becomes the offspring through division, in many-celled organisms (metazoa) select cells (usually sex cells) become the progenitors of the next generation. (icr.org)
  • Cancer is characterized by uncontrolled growth and division of a cell, with extension beyond the normally limiting basement membrane and through the boundaries of normal cells. (medscape.com)
  • Mistakes within the cell cycle can be damaging, hence the process of cell division and the cell cycle is heavily regulated. (crbdiscovery.com)
  • Cells follow a process during cell division. (differencebetween.net)
