FER kinase associated with the forming meiotic spindle during prometaphase and metaphase-I. During maturation, FER kinase localized to the region surrounding condensing chromosomes and the forming spindle (A-B thin arrow). FER also was concentrated in the region immediately outside of the actin matrix which surrounds the chromatin (A-B thick arrow). By 7 hours of culture, the oocytes had reached metaphase-I with FER localized specifically to the spindle and diffusely throughout the cytoplasm (C arrow). (Green = FER; red = f-actin; white = DNA. Bar = 10 μm).
