Actomyosin Ring Formation and Tension Generation in Eukaryotic Cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2016

Nonmedially assembled F-actin cables incorporate into the actomyosin ring in fission yeast [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2012
In many eukaryotes, cytokinesis requires the assembly and constriction of an actomyosin-based contractile ring. Despite the central role of this ring in cytokinesis, the mechanism of F-actin assembly and accumulation in the ring is not fully understood ...

Coordinated cortical ER remodeling facilitates actomyosin ring assembly

Current Biology, 2022
The cortical endoplasmic reticulum (cER) is a reticulated network closely attached to the plasma membrane (PM). In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (S. pombe), ER-PM contacts have been suggested to restrict both the allocation and compaction of large-sized actomyosin assemblies along the lateral cell cortex. However, how cells orchestrate ER-

Inn1 couples contraction of the actomyosin ring to membrane ingression during cytokinesis in budding yeast

open access: yesNature Cell Biology, 2008
By rapidly depleting each of the essential budding yeast proteins of unknown function, we identified a novel factor that we call Inn1, which associates with the contractile actomyosin ring at the end of mitosis and is needed for cytokinesis. We show that

Dynamics of actomyosin filaments in the contractile ring revealed by ultrastructural analysis

Genes to Cells, 2023
AbstractCytokinesis, the final process of cell division, involves the accumulation of actin and myosin II filaments at the cell's equator, forming a contractile ring that facilitates the division into two daughter cells. While light microscopy has provided valuable insights into the molecular mechanism of this process, it has limitations in examining ...

Modeling cytokinesis of eukaryotic cells driven by the actomyosin contractile ring

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, 2016
SummaryA three‐dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic model for cytokinesis of eukaryotic cells is developed, in which we model dynamics of actomyosins in the cell cortex, in particular, along the cytokinetic ring formed in the cortex and in the neighborhood of the cell's division plane explicitly.

Rng2p, a protein required for cytokinesis in fission yeast, is a component of the actomyosin ring and the spindle pole body

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1998
Background: An actomyosin-based contractile ring plays a pivotal role in cytokinesis. Despite the identification of many components of the ring, the steps involved in its assembly are unknown.

Cardiomyocyte binucleation is associated with aberrant mitotic microtubule distribution, mislocalization of RhoA and IQGAP3, as well as defective actomyosin ring anchorage and cleavage furrow ingression

open access: yesCardiovascular Research, 2018
AimsAfter birth mammalian cardiomyocytes initiate a last cell cycle which results in binucleation due to cytokinesis failure. Despite its importance for cardiac regenerative therapies, this process is poorly understood.
