Exotic mitotic mechanisms [PDF]
The emergence of eukaryotes around two billion years ago provided new challenges for the chromosome segregation machineries: the physical separation of multiple large and linear chromosomes from the microtubule-organizing centres by the nuclear envelope.

Mitotic spindle scaling during Xenopus development by kif2a and importin α. [PDF]
Early development of many animals is characterized by rapid cleavages that dramatically decrease cell size, but how the mitotic spindle adapts to changing cell dimensions is not understood.

Perturbing Microtubule Integrity Blocks AMP-Activated Protein Kinase-Induced Meiotic Resumption in Cultured Mouse Oocytes [PDF]
The oocyte meiotic spindle is comprised of microtubules (MT) that bind chromatin and regulate both metaphase plate formation and karyokinesis during meiotic maturation; however, little information is known about their role in meiosis reinitiation.

Dual-spindle formation in zygotes keeps parental genomes apart in early mammalian embryos
It takes two to tango Fusion of egg and sperm combines the genetic material of both parents in one cell. In mammals, including humans, each parental genome is initially confined in a separate pronucleus.

The Phage Nucleus and Tubulin Spindle Are Conserved among Large Pseudomonas Phages
We recently demonstrated that the large Pseudomonas chlororaphis bacteriophage 201φ2-1 assembles a nucleus-like structure that encloses phage DNA and segregates proteins according to function, with DNA processing proteins inside and metabolic enzymes and

In recent years, the demands for mirror finishing by cutting have increased, because the surface quality requirement in die and mold has become severer. In order to realize mirror surface finish by cutting, it is necessary to reduce the influence of tool

Spindle asymmetry drives non-Mendelian chromosome segregation
How selfish genes get their way At the core of Mendelian genetics is the concept that gametes are equally likely to carry either of the two parental copies of a gene.

Association of mitochondria with spindle poles facilitates spindle alignment [PDF]
In all eukaryotic cells, correct segregation of the genetic material during cell division requires proper positioning and alignment of the mitotic spindle with respect to the cell division plane. In the fission yeastSchizosaccharomyces pombe, the spindle is aligned by interphase microtubules during early mitosis , and by astral microtubules and cell ...

Electromyography of the muscle spindle
AbstractIn needle electromyography, there are two spontaneous waveforms, miniature end plate potentials and “end plate spikes”, appearing usually together. Miniature end plate potentials are local, non-propagating postsynaptic waves, caused by spontaneous exocytosis of acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junction.

A mitotic kinase scaffold depleted in testicular seminomas impacts spindle orientation in germ line stem cells. [PDF]
Correct orientation of the mitotic spindle in stem cells underlies organogenesis. Spindle abnormalities correlate with cancer progression in germ line-derived tumors.
