SUMMARY:Eukaryotic cell division and its origins - Professor Buzz Baum\, M
 RC Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology\, University College London
DTSTART:20180222T130000Z
DTEND:20180222T140000Z
UID:TALK75531@talks.cam.ac.uk
CONTACT:Caroline Newnham
DESCRIPTION:In the lab we have long studied the changes in cell shape and 
 organisation that accompany mitotic progression in a number of eukaryotic 
 cell systems. These rely on remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton\, the mi
 crotubule cytoskeleton\, and on changes in cell-substrate adhesion. In thi
 s talk\, we will consider how these wholesale changes in cellular architec
 ture contribute to cell division in different systems in different environ
 ments. In addition\, we will look at how eukaryotic cell division might ha
 ve arisen\, by exploring the commonalities between archaeal and eukaryotic
  cell division\, using Asgard archaea as a bridge between kingdoms.
