Nuclear size control in fission yeast.

The Journal of cell biology - 19 Nov 2007

Neumann Frank R, Nurse Paul

Abstract excerpt

A long-standing biological question is how a eukaryotic cell controls the size of its nucleus. We report here that in fission yeast, nuclear size is proportional to cell size over a 35-fold range, and use mutants to show that a 16-fold change in nuclear DNA content does not influence the relative size of the nucleus. Multi-nucleated cells with unevenly distributed nuclei reveal that nuclei surrounded by a greater...
