Compartmentalized <i>Toxoplasma</i> EB1 bundles spindle microtubules to secure accurate chromosome segregation
14 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
Toxoplasma gondii replicates asexually by a unique internal budding process characterized by interwoven closed mitosis and cytokinesis. Although it is known that the centrosome coordinates these processes, the spatiotemporal organization of mitosis remains poorly defined. Here we demonstrate that centrosome positioning around the nucleus may signal spindle assembly: spindle microtubules (MTs) are first assembled...
