Michel Philippe (Universite de Rennes, Rennes Cédex, France): "In yeast, two critical points of the cell cycle (Start and G1/S) are regulated by the same protein. This protein, called p34cdc2, is coded by the genes cdc2 in Schizzosaccharomyces pombe and CDC28 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By complementation of yeast mutants, proteins from higher eucaryotes homologous to cdc2 have been cloned. Moreover, p34cdc2 has been shown to be one of the main components of the well-known M-phase promotin

Daniel W. Nebert (University of Cincinnati Medical Center): "This review is the third in a series of comprehensive, up- to-date compilations of data about members of the large cytochrome P450 gene superfamily. It serves to organize a large--and growing--body of sequencing and mapping data on 154 P450 genes

SHAPING A COMMITMENT:© 2004 Cell PressBrightfield images of hMSCs plated onto small 1,024 μm2 or large 10,000 μm2 fibronectin islands after 1 week in growth or mixed media. Lipids stain red, alkaline phosphatase stains blue. Scale bar = 50 μm. (From R. McBeath et al., Dev Cell, 6:483–95, 2004)Researchers have tried for years to make stem cells differentiate into specific cell types. This work usually involves bathing the cells in molecular signals that affect their fate

Whither Cell Biology?
Richard Hynes | Dec 10, 2000 | 6 min read
Illustration: A. Canamucio Cell biology has become the third overlapping core discipline of modern biology, along with biochemistry and genetics. Progress over the century--since E.B. Wilson's classic book1 elegantly framed many of the questions of cell biology--has relied on advances in technology and yielded fascinating insights into the ways that cells work. We now have an unprecedented understanding of the structure, organization, and functions of cells. As the number of completed ge
