"In 5/5 metaphase wild type embryos, the metaphase plate was flanked by two distinct threads of HCP-3 staining (Figure 4A). However, in 4/4 metaphase
air-2(
or207ts) embryos, the metaphase plate was distributed throughout the chromatin (Figure 4A). During anaphase, in wild-type embryos, the segregating DNA is associated with HCP-3 staining, again concentrated on the poleward face of the chromatin (Figure 4A). In
air-2(
or207ts) embryos, HCP-3 was distributed throughout the elongated mass of chromatin."
