In the choreography of meiosis—the process responsible for sex cell division in all eukaryotic life—the pairing of homologous chromosomes (homologs) is essential. Errors in this process can lead to an ...

Their analysis showed that the molecular density surrounding chromosomes increased with the progression from the prophase to anaphase stages of mitosis, concurring with chromosome condensation (Figure ...

(A) Histone staining images and OI-DIC density imaging of human living cells in the interphase (the phase between cell divisions, left) and mitotic phase (right). The bottom two rows are OI-DIC ...
