A quick digest :
#Cellularization runs on two separable modules:
🧭 MTs + #MTOCs → spatial patterning (where furrows go)
⚙️ #Actomyosin + membranes→ mechanical ingression (how furrows grow)
Disrupt either one and the process breaks — but in different ways.
We knew from previous work MTs weren't strictly required for #cellularization ! PM furrows still form without them,but things go wrong.
Turns out MTs are essential for spatial fidelity: without them, furrows misdirect, nuclear spacing goes haywire, and dynamics is slower!

Polaroid-style selfie frame with Margarida Araujo. With #microtubules #cellularization and the FocalPlane logo at the bottom of the frame.
Throughout #biologists100, we’ll be highlighting some of our delegates using our new selfie boards. We’re kicking the project off by featuring Margarida Araújo, who will be reporting on the conference for FocalPlane and helped inspire the project.

I just want to #welcome all the new members with a beautiful multinucleated #Ichthyosporean just before undergoing #cellularization to form a transient #multicellular stage.
