Myosin efflux promotes cell elongation to coordinate chromosome segregation with cell cleavage

Chromatid segregation must be coordinated with cytokinesis to preserve genomic stability. Here the authors show that cells clear trailing chromatids from the cleavage site in a two-step cell elongation and demonstrate the role of myosin efflux in the second phase.
