Cellular geometry scaling ensures robust division site positioning

Cellular geometry scaling ensures robust division site positioning

Cells divide within a given size range and can scale across differing cell sizes but mechanisms and function remain unclear. Here the authors show, despite the current dogma of fission yeast maintaining constant width, some fission yeast can scale their width and length, impacting the positioning of...
