Extended Data Figure S2. AFM scan line across the PCF during cleavage.

Extended Data Figure S2

Cleavage of sibling cells was monitored by constantly scanning perpendicularly across the PCF with the AFM cantilever at 10 Hz. A representative example is shown. The cleavage event corresponds to an abrupt drop in the height profile (grey shading). Cleavage is completed within 10 milliseconds and no gradual constriction is observed leading up to this event (flat line).
