Meanwhile, during meiosis, the spindle fibers are referred to as the meiotic spindle. At the beginning of nuclear division, two wheel-shaped protein structures called centrioles position ...

Meiosis is then arrested until ovulation many years later. Just before ovulation, the oocyte resumes meiosis, building a meiotic spindle of microtubules to segregate homologous chromosomes. Upon ...

He also proposed a model to explain the phenomenon, involving shifting the position of Ab10 toward the meiotic spindle poles in anaphase. The four products of meiosis are arranged in a linear tetrad, ...

The results were published in the journal Nucleic Acids Research. During mitotic and meiotic cell division, the spindle fibers bind the chromosomes via a special region, the so-called centromere ...
