title: Dual-Color imaging of nuclear division and mitotic spindle elongation in live cells of Aspergillus nidulans.
abstract: We have developed a dual-color imaging system based on cyan fluorescent protein-labeled histone H2A and green fluorescent protein-labeled alpha tubulin to visualize DNA and spindles simultaneously in the same living cell of Aspergillus nidulans. This system allows new details of mitosis and nuclear movement to be revealed.
