Mitosis and cytokinesis in a uninucleate myosin II-null cell

Cells expressing GFP-a-tubulin were cultivated in plastic Petri dishes. Images were captured every 10 seconds. From R. Neujahr, J. Kohler, J. Murphy, J.M. Schwartz, M. Westphal, and G. Gerisch, Max-Planck-Institut fur Biochemie, Martinsried, Germany.

Cytokinesis in a multinucleated myosin II-null cell

Movement of the mitotic apparatus and cleavage furrow formation in a multinucleate myosin II-null cell. Cells expressing GFP-a-tubulin were cultivated in shaken suspension. Images were captured every 10 seconds. From R. Neujahr, J. Kohler, J. Murphy, J.M. Schwartz, M. Westphal, and G. Gerisch, Max-Planck-Institut fur Biochemie, Martinsried, Germany.
