The kinesin Eg5 drives poleward microtubule flux in Xenopus laevis egg extract spindles
Although mitotic and meiotic spindles maintain a steady-state length during metaphase, their antiparallel microtubules slide toward spindle poles at a constant rate. This “poleward flux” of microtubules occurs in many organisms and may provide part of the force for chromosome segregation. We use qua...
