Assembly pathway of the anastral Drosophila oocyte meiosis I spindle.

Journal of cell science - 15 Apr 2005

Sköld Helén Nilsson, Komma Donald J, Endow Sharyn A

Abstract excerpt

Oocyte meiotic spindles of many species are anastral and lack centrosomes to nucleate microtubules. Assembly of anastral spindles occurs by a pathway that differs from that of most mitotic spindles. Here we analyze assembly of the Drosophila oocyte meiosis I spindle and the role of the Nonclaret disjunctional (Ncd) motor in spindle assembly using wild-type and mutant Ncd fused to GFP. Unexpectedly, we observe...
