Deskripsi

The size of cells fluctuates but there are limited experimental methods to measure live mammalian cell sizes. Here, the authors track single cell volume (FXm) over the cell cycle and generate a mathematical framework to compare size homeostasis in datasets ranging from bacteria to mammalian cells.
