Abstract:The fission yeast S. pombe divides via closed mitosis. In short, mitotic spindle elongation and chromosome segregation transpire entirely within the complete nuclear envelope. Both the spindle and nuclear envelope must undergo significant conformation changes and are subject to varying external forces during this process. While the mechanical relationship between the two mitotic structures has been explored previously, much is still left to be discovered. Here, we investigate this relationship by observing the… Show more
