Myosin Dynamics in Drosophila Neuroblasts Lead to Asymmetric Cytokinesis

Cells divide to create two daughter cells through cytokinesis. Daughter cells of different sizes are created by shifting the position of the cleavage furrow. The cleavage furrow forms at the position of the metaphase plate so in asymmetric cytokinesis the spindle is shifted towards one pole. Unli...
