abstract: Enucleation is the culmination of terminal erythroid differentiation. It results in the release of 2 million new enucleate reticulocytes into your circulation and mine each second. In this issue of Blood, Ubukawa and colleagues shed new light on the mechanism, showing that non-muscle myosin IIb is intimately involved.
