Description In Micrasterias, the cell nucleus migrates directly into the growing semi-cell. A complex system of microtubules is involved in this phenomenon. It consists of a basket-like arrangement of mmicrotubules which surround the nucleus, as well as a microtubule organizing center from which a thin side arm extends. The microtubule system ensures that the nucleus can later move back to the isthmus between the semi-cells. [1].

The drug chlorisopropyl-N-phenylcarbamate, which destroys microtubules, also interferes with nuclear migration. The nucleus loses its orientation. It lies in an abnormal position in the cytoplasm, where it rotates. [2].
