Fig. 5. Most spindles align with the long axis at prophase. The deviation of
the spindle axis from the long axis was measured in parallel (symmetrically)
dividing fixed cells at different time-points during mitosis (A-C).
Charts on the left show the distribution of the raw data;
y-axis=0° corresponds to long axis; each triangle represents one
measurement. The radial line indicates the median angle deviation. Graphs on
the right show the percentage of cells in angle classes of 20°. The
majority of cells have their spindles aligned within 20° of the long axis
throughout the cell cycle. (D) Cells with a spindle axis perpendicular
to the surface were measured at prophase (n=41 cells).
