This extensive volume presents a comprehensive collection of essential techniques for studying cell division, encompassing a diverse range of model systems and approaches spanning various scales. Over the past two decades, a series of remarkable revolutions in experimental molecular biology has taken place, including the development of chimeric fluorescent protein expression, the utilization of advanced quantitative microscopy techniques, the emergence of array-based small molecule inhibitors, proteomic profiling, and gene silencing/manipulation/analysis. These advancements have propelled the field of mitosis to a remarkable stage, enabling single cell biology to not only facilitate imaging and localization studies but also to encompass quantitative analysis and sequencing. Authored for the highly esteemed Methods in Molecular Biology series, the chapters in this book feature introductions to their respective topics, comprehensive lists of the necessary materials and reagents, detailed step-by-step laboratory protocols that are readily reproducible, and valuable tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Conveniently organized, Mitosis: Methods and Protocols serves as a valuable repository of techniques and approaches for professionals working in the field, as well as a practical resource for individuals embarking on the study of mitosis for the first time. By presenting a diverse array of methods and perspectives, this book equips researchers with the tools they need to explore the intricate mechanisms of cell division and advance our understanding of cellular processes.
