Description: HeLa cells, an immortal legacy of cancer victim Henrietta
Lacks (right). The fluorescence micrograph (far
left) shows some of the internal components of two HeLa cells in the process of dividing. Blue and green indicate the location of two proteins that help microtubules (red) attach to chromosomes (white). Defects in these and other proteins that orchestrate cell division result in descendant cells with too many or too few chromosomes, an outcome
that is a hallmark of cancer.
