[HELP with Viewing Videos] [To Figure]

Video 3 A (6.2 MB) and B (7.0 MB)
Corresponds to images presented in Fig. 6. The looping and capture of microtubules contributes to spindle morphogenesis in PTK{alpha}T cells released from monastrol arrest. After monastrol washout, the monopolar spindle transforms into a bipolar spindle. As the centrosomes separate, the formation and looping of microtubule bundles from the distal end of an existing kinetochore is followed by capture and incorporation into the spindle. Frames were acquired every 30 s. Time is shown in minutes:seconds. (A) Microtubules are imaged by 3-D confocal fluorescence microscopy and presented as a maximum intensity projection of a 6-µm-thick Z-series in 1.5-µm steps. (B) Chromosomes in the same cell are imaged by 2-D DIC microscopy, and each image is acquired immediately before (3 s) the fluorescence Z-series at each time point.
