Synopsis NuclearFissionwithoutMicrotubules—aReturntothe Past? KiraHeller* FreelanceScienceWriter,Oakland,California,UnitedStatesofAmerica One of the most familiar images in biology, even to high school students taking an introductory course, is that of newly duplicated chromosomes lined up alongthecenterofacellatthestageofcell division called metaphase. As the cell enters anaphase, microtubules, rod-like filaments that comprise the mitotic spin- dle,pullthechromosomesawayfromone another to opposite sides of the cell. The fission, could produce two clusters of segregated chromosomes, each
