Abstract

The regulation of mitotic spindle orientation is essential to ensure proper cell division and development (Kiyomitsua and Cheeseman Nat Cell Biol 14:311-317, 2012). For identification of potential spindle orientation regulators, determination of the mitotic spindle angle is a well-known but time-consuming procedure. Here we describe a simple and time-saving phenotypic screening assay for the identification of potential spindle orientation regulators. This screen is based on the analysis of monopolar mitotic spindle structures, which form upon inhibition of the mitotic kinesin Eg5/KSP by the small-molecule inhibitor dimethylenastron (DME) or similar compounds.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 May 2018.
All research outputs
#20,485,225
of 23,047,237 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#9,977
of 13,196 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#378,279
of 442,433 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#1,194
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,047,237 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,196 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,433 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
