Asymmetric positioning of the mitotic spindle is a fundamental process responsible for creating sibling cell size asymmetry; however, how the cortex causes the depolymerization of astral microtubules during asymmetric spindle positioning has remained elusive. Early ascidian embryos possess a large cortical subdomain of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) th...
Unequal cell division (UCD) is a fundamental process responsible for creating sibling cell size asymmetry; however, how microtubules are specifically depolymerized on one aster of the mitotic spindle creating a smaller sibling cell during UCD has remained elusive. Using invertebrate chordate embryos (ascidian) that possess a large cortical structur...
