Cell Division
Cell Division – cytoskeletal changes
Mitotic chromosome
consisting of two sister
chromatids
Condensin and cohesin
Condensin - DNA into sister-chromatid
Condensin and cohesin
Condensin and cohesin
Condensin and cohesin
Cohesin – holding 2 sister-chromatids together
Nuclear envelop in Cell Division
Mitotic spindle
Major motor proteins of the spindle
Kinetochore and Chromosome attachment
APC triggers sister-chromatid separation
Contractile ring
Actin and myosin II (contractile ring)
How do cells know where to form contractile ring?
