RESUMO
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi were labeled by green fluorescent protein chimeras and observed by time-lapse confocal microscopy during the rapid cell cycles of sea urchin embryos. The ER undergoes a cyclical microtubule-dependent accumulation at the mitotic poles and by photobleaching experiments remains continuous through the cell cycle. Finger-like indentations of the nuclear envelope near the mitotic poles appear 2–3 min before the permeability barrier of the nuclear envelope begins to change. This permeability change in turn is ∼30 s before nuclear envelope breakdown. During interphase, there are many scattered, disconnected Golgi stacks throughout the cytoplasm, which appear as 1- to 2-μm fluorescent spots. The number of Golgi spots begins to decline soon after nuclear envelope breakdown, reaches a minimum soon after cytokinesis, and then rapidly increases. At higher magnification, smaller spots are seen, along with increased fluorescence in the ER. Quantitative measurements, along with nocodazole and photobleaching experiments, are consistent with a redistribution of some of the Golgi to the ER during mitosis. The scattered Golgi coalesce into a single large aggregate during the interphase after the ninth embryonic cleavage; this is likely to be preparatory for secretion of the hatching enzyme during the following cleavage cycle.
