Spindle dynamics during meiosis in Drosophila oocytes.

The Journal of cell biology - 16 Jun 1997

Endow S A, Komma D J

Abstract excerpt

Mature oocytes of Drosophila are arrested in metaphase of meiosis I. Upon activation by ovulation or fertilization, oocytes undergo a series of rapid changes that have not been directly visualized previously. We report here the use of the Nonclaret disjunctional (Ncd) microtubule motor protein fused to the green fluorescent protein (GFP) to monitor changes in the meiotic spindle of live oocytes after activation...
