Spindle assembly and cytokinesis in the absence of chromosomes during Drosophila male meiosis.

The Journal of cell biology - 31 Mar 2003

Abstract excerpt

A large body of work indicates that chromosomes play a key role in the assembly of both a centrosomal and centrosome-containing spindles. In animal systems, the absence of chromosomes either prevents spindle formation or allows the assembly of a metaphase-like spindle that fails to evolve into an ana-telophase spindle. Here, we show that Drosophila secondary spermatocytes can assemble morphologically normal...
