Abstract excerpt
Cell division involves separating the genetic material and cytoplasm of a mother cell into two daughter cells. The last step of cell division, abscission, consists of cutting the cytoplasmic bridge, a microtubule-rich membranous tube connecting the two cells, which contains the midbody, a dense proteinaceous structure.
