Time-lapse images of a fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell undergoing cell division (progressing clockwise from the earliest images at 10:30). Images in the outer circle show staining for the transitional endoplasmic reticulum (tER) marker Sec24p-GFP; those in the inner circle show staining for the actomyosin ring marker Rlc1p-mCherry. The fission yeast utilizes molecular cues from the actomyosin ring to polarize both tER and Golgi apparatus to the site of cell division, a phenomenon that might fulfill the need for massive vesicle trafficking at the division site. See the full article by Vjestica et al. on p. 1125 of this issue of MBC. (Image: Aleksandar Vjestica, Temasek Life Sciences Laboratory)
