Unravelling the tangled web at the microtubule-organizing center
Curr Opin Cell Biol.
1993 Feb.
Abstract
The last year has seen dramatic progress in the use of genetic and biochemical approaches to identify microtubule-organizing center components. The use of vertebrate and invertebrate egg extracts has allowed the development of novel assays for centrosome duplication and activation. A variety of mutations in fungi are being used to sort out the pathway of spindle pole body duplication.
