UV-microbeam irradiations of the mitotic spindle: spindle forces and structural analysis of lesions.

Abstract：

:Mitotic PtK1 spindles were UV irradiated (285 nm) during metaphase and anaphase between the chromosomes and the pole. The irradiation, a rectangle measuring 1.4 x 5 microns parallel to the metaphase plate, severed between 90 and 100% of spindle microtubules (MTs) in the irradiated region. Changes in organization of MTs in the irradiated region were analyzed by EM serial section analysis coupled with 3-D computer reconstruction. Metaphase cells irradiated 2 to 4 microns below the spindle pole (imaged by polarization optics) lost birefringence in the irradiated region. Peripheral spindle fibers, previously curved to focus on the pole, immediately splayed outwards when severed. We demonstrate via serial section analysis that following irradiation the lesion was devoid of MTs. Within 30 s to 1 min, recovery in live cells commenced as the severed spindle pole moved toward the metaphase plate closing the lesion. This movement was concomitant with the recovery of spindle birefringence and some of the severed fibers becoming refocused at the pole. Ultrastructurally we confirmed that this movement coincided with bridging of the lesion by MTs presumably growing from the pole. The non-irradiated half spindle also lost some birefringence and shortened until it resembled the recovered half spindle. Anaphase cells similarly irradiated did not show recovery of birefringence, and the pole remained disconnected from the remaining mitotic apparatus. Reconstructions of spindle structure confirmed that there were no MTs in the lesion which bridged the severed spindle pole with the remaining mitotic apparatus. These results suggest the existence of chromosome-to-pole spindle forces are dependent upon the existence of a MT continuum, and to a lesser extent to the loss of MT initiation capacity of the centrosome at the metaphase/anaphase transition.
