The nucleolus organizer and the synaptonemal complex in Endymion non-scriptus (L.).

Abstract:

:Stages of meiosis from the bluebell Endymion non-scriptus (L.) were studied by electron microscopy. The nucleolus went through the process of segregation at the beginning of meiosis with the movement to its surface of a pale-staining region. This region was shown to be the same as that called the 'L zone' or lacunae of nucleoli. Its chromosomal nature was strongly suggested by the presence of the synaptonemal complex within it. This demonstrated that the pale-staining region of nucleoli is the nucleolus organizer and almost certainly the chromosome region containing the ribosomal cistrons, and justifies the use of these terms to describe the structure when seen inside the nucleolus. The relationship between this zone and the heterochromatic knob called the nucleolar organizing body in maize by other workers is discussed.

  • A novel centrosome-associated protein with affinity for microtubules.

    abstract::We have identified a novel mammalian protein, MIR1, with microtubule-binding activity. MIR1 is a relative of MID1/midin, the protein implicated in Opitz G/BBB syndrome. In tissue culture cells, MIR1 is enriched at the centrosome. MIR1 dissociates from centrosomes at the G2/M transition and is recruited back to spindle...
