  2. Septum (cell biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septum_(cell_biology)

    A septum in cell biology is the new cell wall that forms between two daughter cells as a result of cell division. [1] Cell division is an extremely complex process that contains four different subprocesses. [ 2 ]

  3. Septum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septum

    In biology, a septum (Latin for something that encloses; pl. septa) is a wall, dividing a cavity or structure into smaller ones. A cavity or structure divided in this way may be referred to as septate .

  4. Septin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septin

    In yeast cells, they compartmentalize parts of the cell and build scaffolding to provide structural support during cell division at the septum, from which they derive their name. [3] Research in human cells suggests that septins build cages around pathogenic bacteria , that immobilize and prevent them from invading other cells.

  5. FtsZ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FtsZ

    Inhibition of FtsZ disrupts septum formation, resulting in filamentation of bacterial cells (top right of electron micrograph).. During cell division, FtsZ is the first protein to move to the division site, and is essential for recruiting other proteins that produce a new cell wall between the dividing cells.

  6. Hypha - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypha

    A hypha consists of one or more cells surrounded by a tubular cell wall. In most fungi, hyphae are divided into cells by internal cross-walls called "septa" (singular septum). Septa are usually perforated by pores large enough for ribosomes, mitochondria, and sometimes nuclei to flow between cells.

  7. Pit connection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pit_connection

    The septum is formed as the walls of a filament grow inwards, dividing the cell; this results in a hole in the middle of the tube where the walls don't quite merge. [2] Thus pit connections are visible in the youngest of septa, widening as the septum thickens, until in some cases they may ultimately occupy the entire septum. [ 4 ]

  8. Dolipore septum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolipore_septum

    The cell wall (3) swells around the septal pore to form a barrel-shaped ring. Perforations in the parenthesome allow cytoplasm to flow between (4) and (5). Dolipore septa are specialized dividing walls between cells (septa) found in almost all species of fungi in the phylum Basidiomycota . [ 1 ]

  9. Glossary of mycology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_mycology

    In hyphae of basidiomycete fungi, parenthesomes (1) "cap" a dolipore septum; (2) the cell wall; (3) swells around the septal pore to form a barrel-shaped ring. Perforations in the parenthesome allow cytoplasm to flow between (4) and (5). A septum found in Basidiomycetes that flares out in the middle to form a channel. [101
