Equatorial retention of the contractile actin ring by microtubules during cytokinesis.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 6 Jun 2003

Pardo Mercedes, Nurse Paul

Abstract excerpt

In most eukaryotes cytokinesis is brought about by a contractile actin ring located at the division plane. Here, in fission yeast the actin ring was found to be required to generate late-mitotic microtubular structures located at the division plane, and these in turn maintained the medial position of the actin ring. When these microtubular structures were disrupted, the actin ring migrated away from the cell...
