amitotic /ˌeɪmʌɪˈtɒtɪk / /ˌamʌɪˈtɒtɪk/adjective BiologyRelating to or denoting the division of a cell nucleus without mitosis.Changes in the structure and ultrastructure of protoplasts during regeneration of the cell wall, mitotic cell division and amitotic nuclear fragmentation....- Tetrahymena divide by binary fission during vegetative growth, and the micronucleus and macronucleus are propagated by mitotic and amitotic division, respectively.
- As a result, the normal complement of DNA in the micronucleus is 4C during the amitotic division of the macronucleus and cytokinesis.
Derivativesamitosis noun ...- Not surprisingly, macronuclei divide by amitosis (except within the class Karyorelictea, in which macronuclear division does not occur).
- Two new micronuclei have formed in what would soon become daughter cells, the macronucleus has undergone amitosis, and Cytokinesis is progressing as the cleavage furrow becomes defined.
- Besides amitosis, cold-pretreatment also induced some abnormal mitotic behavior leading to the formation of micronuclei.
amitotically adverb ...- In contrast, the somatic macronucleus is polyploid, divides amitotically, and is actively transcribed.
- In contrast, the macronucleus serves as the somatic nucleus, divides amitotically, contains multiple copies of most genes, and is transcriptionally active.
- The MAC divides amitotically, resulting in a random distribution of chromosome copies.
