The nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio controls the cell cycle period in compartmentalized frog egg extract

Liliana Piñeros, Nikita S. Frolov, Daniel Ruiz-Reynés…·Lendert Gelens

This study shows that the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio affects the cell cycle period in frog egg extracts, with nuclei increasing in size and extending the cycle time.
