2-amino-5-chloropyrimidin-1-ium hydrogen maleate by Fun, Hoong-Kun., Hemamalini, Madhukar., Rajakannan, Venkatachalam.

“…In the roughly planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.026 Å) hydrogen malate anion, an intramolecular O-HO hydrogen bond generates an S(7) ring. In the crystal, the protonated N atom and the 2-amino group of the cation are hydrogen bonded to the carboxylate O atoms of the anion via a pair of N-HO hydrogen bonds, forming an R22(8) ring motif. …”

Is there a role for traction forces exerted at the polar regions in the cytokinesis of adherent cells? by Foo, Jasmine Mao Shan.

“…In cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm of the mother cell to form two daughter cells has long been known to be accomplished by furrow ingression through constriction of the contractile ring. Recent studies suggested that adherent cells could divide without the contractile ring, in an adhesion-dependent manner by producing traction forces. …”
