Phenotypic analysis of misato function reveals roles of noncentrosomal microtubules in Drosophila spindle formation.

Journal of cell science - 1 Mar 2011

Mottier-Pavie Violaine, Cenci Giovanni, Vernì Fiammetta, Gatti Maurizio, Bonaccorsi Silvia

Abstract excerpt

Mitotic spindle assembly in centrosome-containing cells relies on two main microtubule (MT) nucleation pathways, one based on centrosomes and the other on chromosomes. However, the relative role of these pathways is not well defined. In Drosophila, mutants without centrosomes can form functional...
