Partial, but not complete, inactivation of lin-5 delays exit from mitosis, consistent with a lin-5 function in both mitotic arrest and chromosome segregation. Arrested early L1 animals were shifted from 15 to 23°C (left) or 25°C (right), stimulated to develop synchronously by addition of food, and examined using Nomarski optics. The time in mitosis, determined as the time from disappearance of the nucleolus until reformation of the nuclear envelope, was recorded for the first (abortive) divisions in the P cell lineages. L1 larvae scored were of wild-type (WT), lin-5(e1348)/+, lin-5(e1348), or lin-5(ev571ts) genotype.
