Membrane-based mechanisms of mitotic spindle assembly
Chromosome segregation during mitosis is mediated by the mitotic spindle. Formation of this microtubular structure relies on distinct processes such as microtubule nucleation and growth and the consequent focusing of these filaments into spindle poles. Here, we discuss our recent finding that a size-exclusion spindle envelope promotes mitotic fidelity in Drosophila cells in light of distinct sp...
متن کاملA requirement for epsin in mitotic membrane and spindle organization
Eukaryotic cells possess a sophisticated membrane system to facilitate diverse functions. Whereas much is known about the nature of membrane systems in interphase, the organization and function of the mitotic membrane system are less well understood. In this study, we show that epsin, an endocytic adapter protein, regulates mitotic membrane morphology and spindle integrity in HeLa cells. Using ...
متن کاملthe role of visual aids and translation in teaching vocabulary in est
the present study investigated the effect of the two vocabulary teaching techniques in est, namely the use of translation and the use of visual aids as two separate vocabulary teaching techniques. to answer the question of the study, a pretest (michigan test) was administered to the 58 randomly selected est students at khajeh nasiredin tusi university, faculty of mechanics. after the homogeneit...
15 صفحه اولThe mitotic spindle checkpoint
One of the most awe-inspiring demonstrations in biology is a timelapse video of mitosis viewed with high magnification phase contrast or Nomarski DIC microscopy. From initial chaotic movement comes the orderly alignment of chromosomes at the metaphase plate followed by a flawlessly synchronous splitting of the chromosomes and their gliding separation to the two mitotic poles. Enforcing the timi...
متن کاملActin and Myosin in the Mitotic Spindle
plus end–binding protein CLASP. Mitochondrial aggregation could not be recapitulated by mutants of either the motor protein dynein or other plus end–binding proteins. The Peg1 mutation did not affect the cytoskeleton, and the changes were independent of the cell cycle, suggesting the aggregation was not due to other changes in microtubules. Peg1 was found to be a mitochondrial peripheral membra...
