Maternally expressed and partially redundant beta-tubulins in Caenorhabditis elegans are autoregulated.

Journal of cell science - 26 Jan 2004

Abstract excerpt

The mitotic spindle, which partitions replicated chromosomes to daughter cells during cell division, is composed of microtubule assemblies of alpha/beta-tubulin heterodimers. Positioning of the mitotic spindle influences the size and location of daughter cells, and can be important for the proper partitioning of developmental determinants. We describe two semi-dominant mis-sense mutations in tbb-2, one of two C....
