Tracking DNA Changes in the Cell Cycle
Description
Cell cycle analysis tracks how DNA levels change as a cell grows, copies its genome, and divides into two daughter cells by mitosis. These DNA shifts let scientists sort cells by the phase of the cell cycle they are in, based on DNA content.
The method in this page uses DNA staining to measure th...

Transcript
Cell cycle refers to the set of cellular and biochemical processes occurring within a cell leading to its division. A cell passes through different stages of the cycle, and the time taken to complete this process is almost constant for a cell type. Any deviation from this duration is indicative of abnormal cell division. There...
