This project examines the formation of the meiotic spindle in mouse oocytes, focusing on the role of Polo-like kinase 4 in acentriolar cells. It aims to understand the mechanisms of spindle assembly and the behavior of microtubule organizing centers during early embryonic development.
An increase in the age of onset of child-bearing increases in developed countries is leading to an increased incidence of chromosome abnormalities arising in defective meiosis.
Accurate chromosome segregation requires a correctly assembled meiotic spindle and so it is essential to understand this process.
Here we propose to examine how the spindle forms in the oocytes and early embryos of the mouse that, like human oocytes, lack centrioles.
Nevertheless, spindle formation in these cells require…
