Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Dividing yeast cells, SEM
Dividing yeast cells. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Schizosaccharomyces pombe yeast cells dividing. S. pombe is a single-celled fungus that is studied widely as a model organism for eukaryotic cell division. It is a rod-shaped yeast that grows by elongation at its ends. It replicates by binary fission. When it reaches a certain size its genetic material (deoxyribonucleic acid, DNA) separates to opposite ends of the cell and a division septum (wall) grows across the centre of the cell, dividing it into two daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. Magnification: x5500 when printed 10cm wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM), we witness the intricate process of cell division in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, a single-celled fungus renowned as a widely studied model organism for eukaryotic cell division. The rod-shaped yeast, S. pombe, grows by elongation at its ends and replicates through binary fission. As the yeast cell reaches a certain size, its genetic material (DNA) begins to separate to opposite ends of the cell. The division septum, a thin wall, then grows across the centre of the cell, dividing it into two identical daughter cells. This process, known as medial fission, is a hallmark of S. pombe and is a crucial aspect of its asexual replication. This stunning SEM image, with a magnification of x5500 when printed 10cm wide, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the microscopic world of biology. The false colours enhance the visualization of the intricate details of the dividing yeast cells, revealing the complex structures involved in the process of cell division. S. pombe is a significant organism in various fields of study, including microbiology, mycology, and eukaryote biology. Its unique mode of binary fission and the ease with which it can be cultured and manipulated make it an invaluable tool for researchers investigating the fundamental mechanisms of cell division in eukaryotes. This image serves as a testament to the beauty and complexity of nature, showcasing the intricacies of cellular processes that underpin all life on Earth.
