FIGURE 3:

Mitotic spindles are morphologically normal in ndc80-NH12, yet chromosome missegregation is induced. (A) Time-lapse fluorescence montages of the spindle microtubule (GFP-Atb2, green, middle), kinetochore (Mis6-2mRFP, two copies of monomeric RFP, red, bottom), and the SPB (Cut12-CFP, shown in the merged images on the top) are shown in wild-type cells (left) and type I (middle) and type II (right) ndc80-NH12 cells incubated at 36°C for 1 h. Representative images of each strain are shown. Unlike wild-type cells, chromosomes (kinetochores) segregate unequally in ndc80-NH12 cells. Overall spindle microtubule structures (0–6 min), including their intensities and morphologies, are indistinguishable between wild-type and ndc80-NH12 cells. Note that GFP-Atb2 signals in wild-type (left) and type II (right) cells became dim after 6 min, ascribable to fluorescence bleaching. Scale bars, 5 μm.
