Abstract excerpt
Cytokinesis in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces begins by formation of a medially placed actomyosin ring, continues by progressive development of a septum, and is completed by cleavage of the mature septum to bring about cell separation. The cytological analysis of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe morphomutants sph2-3 and sep1-1 presented here demonstrates that the medial actomyosin ring colocalizes to the...
