Dispatch. Cell division: the place and time of cytokinesis.
Recent studies have provided evidence that, during cytokinesis, activation of the Pbl-Rho1 pathway by a protein complex located at the spindle midzone, and inhibition of this pathway by two mitotic cyclins, may be major contributing factors controlling the place and timing of the cleavage furrow.
