A new study by a team of researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has found that the process of mitotic chromosome condensation can contribute to homeostatic control of cell growth. In the study, the researchers used an in vitro system to investigate the condensation of chromosomes during mitosis. They observed that the condensation of chromosomes, which occurs during mitosis, is essential for regulating the growth of cells. This discovery has implications for understanding the role of the mitotic chromosome in controlling the growth of cells and tissues.
