In vitro contraction of cytokinetic ring depends on myosin II but not on actin dynamics
Cytokinesis in many eukaryotes involves the contraction of an actomyosin-based contractile ring. However, the detailed mechanism… (More)

Myosin localization during meiosis I of crane-fly spermatocytes gives indications about its role in division.
We showed previously that in crane-fly spermatocytes myosin is required for tubulin flux [Silverman-Gavrila and Forer, 2000a: J… (More)
