Description: The cytokinetic cleavage furrow must be carefully aligned with the spindle midzone during asymmetric cell division. Pacquelet et al. discover a pathway that maintains the connection between spindle and furrow position in one-cell C. elegans embryos by inhibiting the accumulation of myosin at the anterior cortex during cytokinesis. This biosights episode presents the paper by Pacquelet et al. from the September 28, 2015, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology and includes an interview with the pape
