Coupling changes in cell shape to chromosome segregation

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology 17, 511 (2016). doi:10.1038/nrm.2016.75 Authors: Nitya Ramkumar & Buzz Baum Animal cells undergo dramatic changes in shape, mechanics and polarity as they progress through the different stages of cell division. These changes begin at mitotic entry, with cell–substrate adhesion remodelling, assembly of a cortical actomyosin network and osmotic swelling, which together enable cells to adopt
