Human kinesin-5 KIF11 drives the helical motion of anti-parallel and parallel microtubules around each other

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
During mitosis, motor proteins and microtubule-associated protein organize the spindle apparatus by cross-linking and sliding microtubules. Kinesin-5 plays a vital role in spindle formation and maintenance, potentially inducing twist in the spindle ...

Pericentric Chromatin Is an Elastic Component of the Mitotic Spindle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
SummaryBackgroundPrior to chromosome segregation, the mitotic spindle bi-orients and aligns sister chromatids along the metaphase plate. During metaphase, spindle length remains constant, which suggests that spindle forces (inward and outward) are ...

Ontogenetic Alteration of the Spindle Apparatus: Possible Relation to Chromosome Pairing

open access: yesCaryologia, 1973
SUMMARYAs the monocot Ornithogalum virens matures from seed germination to flowering there is a progressive reduction in the diameter of mitotic spindle apparatuses at the metaphase plate, and poles become more distinct. Apparently one result of this constriction of the spindle is a closer association of chromosomes on the metaphase plate which could ...

Comparison of a Four-Section Spindle and Stomacher for Efficacy of Detaching Microorganisms from Fresh Vegetables [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This study was undertaken to compare the effect of the spindle and stomacher for detaching microorganisms from fresh vegetables. The spindle is an apparatus for detaching microorganisms from food surfaces, which was developed in our laboratory.

A study of M0R1/GEM1 and kinl-like kinesins arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Microtubules perform essential functions in eukaryotic cells and, with other cytoskeletal elements, are involved in diverse cellular processes. Plant cells construct four microtubule arrays; There are two cortical arrays, the interphase cortical array ...
