Cell size sensing—a one-dimensional solution for a three-dimensional problem?
Abstract Individual cell types have characteristic sizes, suggesting that size sensing mechanisms may coordinate transcription, translation, and metabolism with cell growth rates. Two types of size-sensing mechanisms have been proposed: spatial sensing of the location or dimensions of a signal, subc...
