Photographic Print : Abnormal mitosis
Photo Prints from Science Photo Library
Abnormal mitosis
Mitosis. Fluorescence micrograph of a cell during abnormal anaphase of mitosis (nuclear division). During mitosis two daughter nuclei are formed from one parent nucleus. This requires organisation of the chromosomes (blue) and mitotic spindles (red) to ensure that each cell retains an exact copy of the parent cells genetic information. Usually at anaphase the two identical sister chromatids that make up a chromosome are pulled to opposite ends of the cell. However, in this cell the spindles are having trouble separating the chromatids. Abnormal mitosis can lead to cell abnormalities or cell death

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intricate process of mitosis, specifically an abnormal anaphase. Mitosis is a crucial stage in cell division where one parent nucleus gives rise to two daughter nuclei, ensuring the preservation of genetic information. The image showcases the organization of chromosomes (blue) and mitotic spindles (red), which play a pivotal role in maintaining the fidelity of DNA replication. In this particular cell, we witness a deviation from the norm as the spindles encounter difficulty in separating sister chromatids. This aberrant mitosis can have severe consequences such as cellular abnormalities or even cell death. The significance lies in understanding how errors during mitosis can impact overall cellular health and function. The fluorescence micrograph provides us with a detailed view into this biological phenomenon by utilizing staining techniques to highlight specific structures within the cell. We observe single cells undergoing division under intense microscopic scrutiny, revealing their cytoskeletal components and enzymatic activity. By studying these processes at a molecular level, scientists gain insights into various aspects of genetics and cellular biology. This wide field deconvoluted image serves as both an educational tool for aspiring biologists and a testament to the complexity inherent in every living organism's existence.
