Mutations affecting the cytoskeletal organization of syncytial Drosophila embryos.

Abstract excerpt

Cytoplasmic organization, nuclear migration, and nuclear division in the early syncytial Drosophila embryo are all modulated by the cytoskeleton. In an attempt to identify genes involved in cytoskeletal functions, we have examined a collection of maternal-effect lethal mutations induced by single P-element transposition for those that cause defects in nuclear movement, organization, or morphology during the...
