Notes
The pattern of cytospindle assembly and the modifications of the microtubular cytoplasmic network during division of Paramecium are studied by means of indirect immunofluorescence. The assembly of cytospindle starts at two independent areas placed respectively around the proter's and opisthe's buccal overture. The moment of the microtubule bundles' appearance depends on their distance from the buccal opening, with those closest appearing 1st. The existence of microtubule organizing centers that act transiently during division of Paramecium is discussed.
