Fragmentation and partitioning of the Golgi apparatus during mitosis in HeLa cells.

J M Lucocq 1, G Warren 1
PMCID: PMC553775  PMID: 3428259

Abstract

Osmium impregnation was used to determine the number of Golgi apparatus in both interphase and mitotic HeLa cells. The number was found to increase substantially during mitosis to the point where random partitioning alone would explain the nearly equal numbers found in each daughter cell.
