This time-lapse movie shows GFP-tagged ROD, a protein found at the condensed chromosome kinetochore, during the waves of synchronous mitoses. The sequence shows 1. kinetochore alignment at the cell ...

Transmission electron microscope image of synaptonemal complex in nuclei of Drosophila germarium cell.

Nucleus of a plant cell showing synaptonemal complex, a ladder- like protein structure that forms between pairing chromosomes during meiosis (the cell division required for reproduction). This image w...

Transmission electron micrograph showing the characteristic features of the synaptonemal complex in a thin section of a Drosophila oocyte.

The image shows a mouse spermatocyte in meiosis immuno-labeled for two components, SYCP3 (red) and SYCP1 green) of the synaptonemal complex. The red and green signals have been offset to facilitate vi...

Transmission electron microscope image of synaptonemal complex in nuclei of Drosophila germarium cell. This is a higher magnification image of CIL 40371.

This is a higher magnification image of CIL 40371. This is a higher magnification image of CIL 40371.

High resolution of a daughter micronucleus in anaphase of a dividing cell of Didinium nasutum. The chromosomes are compacted into one large heterochromatic body. Remnants of the mitotic division spind...

Transmission electron micrographs of whole metaphase chromosomes isolated from Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells showing the characteristic paired chromatids and centromeric constrictions.

HeLa cells expressing a kinetochore-specific protein were synchronized and released into S phase. At time intervals of 1,3,4,6,and 8 hr, cells were pulsed with BrdU, fixed and processed to label contr...
