Abstract
Mitosis is a fundamental process during which the genetic material is transferred to daughter cells and is orchestrated by the mitotic spindle. Between two opposite spindle poles microtubules form bundles that interact with chromosomes. Bundles that bind to kinetochores on the chromosome are called kinetochore fibers, whilst certain microtubules form antiparallel overlap bundles in the central part of the spindle. With this research localization and distribution of antiparallel overlap bundles in metaphase and the spatial organization of these bundles and kinetochore fibers possess will be investigated. By using confocal microscope whole metaphase spindles will be imaged which will enable to determine the number of overlap regions and their association with kinetochore fibers. Further work will be focused on understanding the spatial organization of the whole mitotic spindle. Used approach revealed that nearly all antiparallel fibers are linked with kinetochore fibers and that human mitotic spindle is a chiral structure.
Abstract (croatian)
Mitoza je fundamentalan process kojim se genetička informacija prenosi na stanice kćeri, a struktura koja upravlja ovim procesom je diobeno vreteno, Između dva nasuprotna pola vretena pružaju se vlakna mikrotubula koja stvaraju interakcije sa kromosomima. Vlakna koja se vežu za kinetohore na kromosomima nazivaju se kinetohorna vlakna. Neki od ostalih svežnjeva stvaraju antiparalelne preklapajuće regije u centralnom djelu diobenog vretena. U ovom radu ispitati će se lokalizacija i zastupljenost antiparalelnih preklapajućih regija u metafazi te će se istražiti prostorna organizacija navedenih i kinethornih vlakana. Uz pomoć metode konfokalne mikroskopije snimati će se cijela vretena što će omogućiti utvrđivanje broja antiparalelnih svežnjeva, a odgovoriti će na pitanje njihove povezanosti sa kinetohornim vlaknima. Daljnji rad biti će usmjeren na razumijevanje prostorne organizacije metafaznog diobenog vretena. Uz primjenu navedenog pristupa, otkriveno je da su antiparalelna vlakna povezana sa kinetohornim vlaknima te da je diobeno vreteno u ljudskim stanicama kiralna struktura.
