Article Synopsis
- The gender of undergraduate research mentors plays a significant role in shaping students' research experiences in STEM fields, with female mentors positively impacting students' preparedness for scientific careers.
- Research shows that while students typically do not choose mentors based on gender, those with female mentors rate their experiences more favorably.
- Ensuring a balanced representation of female mentors in undergraduate research opportunities is crucial for maximizing the benefits of these experiences for all students.
Article Synopsis
- Cul3-RING ubiquitin ligases play a crucial role in various cellular processes, including controlling the cell cycle through the ubiquitylation of target substrates.* -
- Depleting CUL3 and the BTB protein KLHL18 leads to delayed entry into mitosis due to inhibited activation of Aurora-A, a kinase essential for this process.* -
- The study suggests that the CUL3-KLHL18 ligase is necessary for proper mitotic timing and coordinates the activation of Aurora-A at centrosomes.*
Unperturbed mitosis is a prerequisite for the generation of two genetically identical daughter cells. Nucleolar-spindle associated protein (NuSAP) is an important mitotic regulator. The activity of NuSAP is essential for a variety of cellular events that occur during mitosis starting from spindle assembly to cytokinesis.
