Cytokinesis ensures the successful completion of the cell cycle and distribution of chromosomes, organelles, and cytoplasm between daughter cells. It is accomplished by formation and constriction of an actomyosin contractile ring that drives the progression of a cleavage furrow. Microinjection experiments and in vitro transfection assays have suggested a requirement for small GTPases of the Rho family in cytokinesis. Yet, the identity of proteins regulating Rho signaling pathways during cytokine ...[more]
