Orbit/CLASP is required for myosin accumulation at the cleavage furrow in Drosophila male meiosis.

Orbit/CLASP is required for myosin accumulation at the cleavage furrow in Drosophila male meiosis.

Peripheral microtubules (MTs) near the cell cortex are essential for the positioning and continuous constriction of the contractile ring (CR) in cytokinesis. Time-lapse observations of Drosophila male meiosis showed that myosin II was first recruited along the cell cortex independent of MTs. Then, s...
