Cell Division in Budding Yeast (IMAGE)
Caption
During the final stage of cell division in budding yeast, a short-lived contractile ring constricts the cellular membrane and eventually separates the dividing cell in two. Cdc11, a component of the septin complex that assembles at the bud neck, is shown in red, and Myo1, which is part of the contractile actomyosin ring, is shown in green. Spc42 (the red dots at the far end of both mother and daughter) is part of the spindle pole body.
