Precocious (pre-anaphase) cleavage furrows in Mesostoma spermatocytes

Arthur Forer, Jeremy Pickett-Heaps

Journal article  |  2010  |  EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF CELL BIOLOGY

It generally is assumed that cleavage furrows start ingression at anaphase, but this is not always true. Cleavage furrows are init..

Mitosis: spindle evolution and the matrix model

Jeremy Pickett-Heaps, Art Forer

Journal article  |  2009  |  PROTOPLASMA

Current spindle models explain "anaphase A" (movement of chromosomes to the poles) in terms of a motility system based solely on m..

What generates flux of tubulin in kinetochore microtubules?

Arthur Forer, Jeremy D Pickett-Heaps, Tim Spurck

Journal article  |  2008  |  PROTOPLASMA

We discuss models for production of tubulin flux in kinetochore microtubules. Current models concentrate solely on microtubules an..

Actin and myosin inhibitors block elongation of kinetochore fibre stubs in metaphase crane-fly spermatocytes

A Forer, T Spurck, JD Pickett-Heaps

Journal article  |  2007  |  PROTOPLASMA

We used an ultraviolet microbeam to cut individual kinetochore spindle fibres in metaphase crane-fly spermatocytes. We then follow..
