Figure 2: Stages of ER inheritance in yeast:

Figure 2:

ER inheritance of the yeast cell starts with tubular ER (initial tubular ER) entry into the daughter cell on actin cables in association with Myo4 and She3 proteins (step I and II). The initial tubular ER reaches and is anchored by components localized at the bud tip such as the exocyst (in purple) (step III), which allows for lateral growth of the ER, generating the cortical ER (cER) (step IV). The nucleus and the peri-nuclear ER move into the daughter cell (step V), followed by nuclear division (step VI). Ultimately, cytokinesis separates the two cells.
