Inhibition of Physarum mitochondrial division by cytochalasin B.
The mitochondrial division of Physarum is inhibited by cytochalasin B. Dumbbell-shaped dividing mitochondria become spherical bodies by this inhibitor. These results suggest that contractile proteins are essential for the mitochondrial division.
