FIGURE 6: — TCC-1 contributes to translocation of the meiotic spindle toward the cortex. Depicted are still images from time-lapse recordings of normal (Control), tcc-1(RNAi), and unc-116(RNAi) embryos. In control embryos, the meiotic spindle stays in close proximity to the anterior cortex. After spindle shortening, a rotation causes the spindle to be positioned perpendicular to the cortex (arrowhead). In tcc-1(RNAi) embryos, the meiotic spindle becomes transiently displaced from the cortex (arrow, second row), as in unc-116(RNAi) embryos (arrow, bottom row). In some tcc-1(RNAi) embryos, the meiotic spindle appears to drift or tumble away from the anterior end (arrow, third row). See Supplemental Movies S1–S11 for further details.
