- Data Harvesting from fields of spindles
[作者:Gatlin, JC; Salmon, ED,期刊:Cell, 页码:426-428 , 文章类型: Editorial Material,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- The mitotic spindle is essential for chromosome segregation and must be large enough to accommodate all of the chromatin in the dividing cell. In this issue, Dinarina et al. (2009) grow "fields" of spindles on coverslips...
- DNA Makes RNA Makes Innate Immunity
[作者:O'Neill, LAJ,期刊:Cell, 页码:428-430 , 文章类型: Editorial Material,,卷期:2009年138-3]

- Time's up: Bursting out of Transcription
[作者:Ford, E; Thanos, D,期刊:Cell, 页码:430-432 , 文章类型: Editorial Material,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- Many inducible genes are transcribed in bursts. In this issue, Degenhardt et al. (2009) report computational models that predict and validate patterns of stochastic gene expression.
- Human Telomerase caught in the Act
[作者:Wu, P; de Lange, T,期刊:Cell, 页码:432-434 , 文章类型: Editorial Material,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- Based on prior work, it was expected that telomerase would preferentially elongate the shortest telomeres in a cell, extending the telomeric G-rich strand through a process that is coupled to the synthesis of the complem...
- The Ectopic Expression of Pax4 in the Mouse Pancreas Converts Progenitor Cells into alpha and Subsequently beta Cells
[作者:Collombat, P; Xu, XB; Ravassard, P; Sosa-Pineda, B; Dussaud, S; Billestrup, N; Madsen, OD; Serup, P; Heimberg, H; Mansouri, A,期刊:Cell, 页码:449-462 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- We have previously reported that the loss of Arx and/or Pax4 gene activity leads to a shift in the fate of the different endocrine cell subtypes in the mouse pancreas, without affecting the total endocrine cell numbers. ...
- Telomere Extension Occurs at Most Chromosome Ends and Is Uncoupled from Fill-In in Human Cancer Cells
[作者:Zhao, Y; Sfeir, AJ; Zou, Y; Buseman, CM; Chow, TT; Shay, JW; Wright, WE,期刊:Cell, 页码:463-475 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- Telomeres are thought to be maintained by the preferential recruitment of telomerase to the shortest telomeres. The extension of the G-rich telomeric strand by telomerase is also believed to be coordinated with the compl...
- Identification of a Physiologically Relevant Endogenous Ligand for PPAR alpha in Liver
[作者:Chakravarthy, MV; Lodhi, IJ; Yin, L; Malapaka, RRV; Xu, HE; Turk, J; Semenkovich, CF,期刊:Cell, 页码:476-488 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2009年138-3]
- The nuclear receptor PPAR alpha is activated by drugs to treat human disorders of lipid metabolism. Its endogenous ligand is unknown. PPAR alpha-dependent gene expression is impaired with inactivation of fatty acid synth...
- Population-Level Transcription Cycles Derive from Stochastic Timing of Single-Cell Transcription
[作者:Degenhardt, T; Rybakova, KN; Tomaszewska, A; Mone, MJ; Westerhoff, HV; Bruggeman, FJ; Carlberg, C,期刊:Cell, 页码:489-501 , 文章类型: Article,,卷期:2009年138-3]
