Cell cycle

Synapsis (also called syndesis) is the pairing of two homologous chromosomes that occurs during meiosis.

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are a family of protein kinases first discovered for their role in regulating the cell cycle.

Meiosis /maɪˈoʊsᵻs/ is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, creating four haploid cells, each genetically distinct from the parent cell that gave rise to them.

Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.

A cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor protein is a protein which inhibits cyclin-dependent kinase.

Cyclins are a family of proteins that control the progression of cells through the cell cycle by activating cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) enzymes.

Wee1 is a nuclear kinase belonging to the Ser/Thr family of protein kinases in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (S. pombe).

During the process of cell division, the spindle checkpoint prevents separation of the duplicated chromosomes until each chromosome is properly attached to the spindle apparatus.

Septins are a group of GTP-binding proteins found primarily in eukaryotic cells of fungi and animals, but also in some green algae.

Binucleated cells are cells that contain two nuclei.

Cyclin D is a member of the cyclin protein family that is involved in regulating cell cycle progression.

All living organisms are products of repeated rounds of cell growth and division.

Cyclin A is a member of the cyclin family, a group of proteins that function in regulating progression through the cell cycle.

Cyclin B is a member of the cyclin family.

Cyclin E is a member of the cyclin family.

Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is a kinase belonging to the AGC (PKA/ PKG/PKC) family of serine-threonine kinases.

Cdc4 (cell division control protein 4) is a substrate recognition component of the SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) ubiquitin ligase complex, which acts as a mediator of ubiquitin transfer to target proteins, leading to their subsequent degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.

mDia1 (also known as Dia1, Drf1 for Diaphanous-related formin-1, Diaph1, KIAA4062, p140mDia, mKIAA4062, or D18Wsu154e) is a member of the protein family called the formins and is a Rho effector.

Cdh1 is one of the substrate adaptor protein of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
