Fig. 4. Cell cycle progression in Ltk- cells expressing WT and mutant
MAP4 constructs. Cells grown on coverslips were fixed and expressing cells
were quantified by scoring GFP-MAP4 fluorescence. Cells were scored for
presence of: (1) two centrosomes with an intact nucleus (late G2 or
G2/M transition); (2) mitotic spindle (M); or (3) midbody
separating two daughter cells (early G1), as illustrated in the
schematic diagrams and fluorescence images. Cells expressing WT- and mutant
MAP4 species (2 clones for each) were scored for the proportion of the total
GFP-MAP4-expressing cells that were in late G2, M, or early
G1 phase.
