Cleavage-furrow formation without F-actin in Chlamydomonas [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019
Significance Studies of eukaryotic cell division have focused on the actomyosin ring, whose filaments of F-actin and myosin-II are hypothesized to generate the contractile force for ingression of the cleavage furrow. However, myosin-II has a very limited

Rab1 interacts with GOLPH3 and controls Golgi structure and contractile ring constriction during cytokinesis in Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Cytokinesis requires a tight coordination between actomyosin ring constriction and new membrane addition along the ingressing cleavage furrow. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying vesicle trafficking to the equatorial site and how this process is

Animal cell cytokinesis: the role of dynamic changes in the plasma membrane proteome and lipidome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In animal cells, cytokinesis is characterised by the formation of the mitotic spindle that signals the assembly of an actomyosin ring between the spindle poles.

Myosin-1 inhibition by PClP affects membrane shape, cortical actin distribution and lipid droplet dynamics in early Zebrafish embryos. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Myosin-1 (Myo1) represents a mechanical link between the membrane and actin-cytoskeleton in animal cells. We have studied the effect of Myo1 inhibitor PClP in 1-8 cell Zebrafish embryos.

Cytokinesis in bloodstream stage Trypanosoma brucei requires a family of katanins and spastin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Microtubule severing enzymes regulate microtubule dynamics in a wide range of organisms and are implicated in important cell cycle processes such as mitotic spindle assembly and disassembly, chromosome movement and cytokinesis.

Giant FAZ10 is required for flagellum attachment zone stabilization and furrow positioning in Trypanosoma brucei [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The flagellum and flagellum attachment zone (FAZ) are important cytoskeletal structures in trypanosomatids, being required for motility, cell division and cell morphogenesis.

Cytokinesis D is Mediated by Cortical Flow of Dividing Cells Instead of Chemotaxis

open access: yesCells, 2019
Cytokinesis D is known as the midwife mechanism in which neighboring cells facilitate cell division by crossing the cleavage furrow of dividing cells.

The maternal-effect gene cellular island encodes aurora B kinase and is essential for furrow formation in the early zebrafish embryo.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2009
Females homozygous for a mutation in cellular island (cei) produce embryos with defects in cytokinesis during early development. Analysis of the cytoskeletal events associated with furrow formation reveal that these defects include a general delay in ...

Spatiotemporal recruitment of RhoGTPase protein GRAF inhibits actomyosin ring constriction in Drosophila cellularization

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Actomyosin contractility is regulated by Rho-GTP in cell migration, cytokinesis and morphogenesis in embryo development. Whereas Rho activation by Rho-GTP exchange factor (GEF), RhoGEF2, is well known in actomyosin contractility during cytokinesis at the
