Drosophila male meiosis as a model system for the study of cytokinesis in animal cells.

Cell structure and function - 1 Dec 2001

Giansanti M G, Bonaccorsi S, Bucciarelli E, Gatti M

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila male meiosis offers unique opportunities for mutational dissection of cytokinesis. This system allows easy and unambiguos identification of mutants defective in cytokinesis through the examination of spermatid morphology. Moreover, cytokinesis defects and protein immunostaining can be analyzed with exquisite cytological resolution because of the large size of meiotic spindles. In the past few years...
