Description
Shown is a fluorescence microscopy image of a HeLa cell at mitotic metaphase. The cell is stained to reveal DNA (blue), microtubules (red), and the C-terminal portion of the KIF2A protein (green) which is largely confined to the compact chromosomes. The image is part of a large project to characterize the locations of recombinantly tagged kinesin and myosin genes expressed from human or mouse-derived bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) as a resource for cell biology research.
