A) Left: Immunofluorescence images of RPE-1 cells acquired using DAPI (blue) to visualize the chromosomes and Phalloidin (red)<br />
to visualize the actin cytoskeleton. Right: Quantification of representative images shown on the left. The percentage of telophase<br />
cells with lagging chromosomes in the cleavage furrow was determined over all telophase cells. U2OS cells were released from a 3<br />
hour RO block and fixed at the moment of telophase. RPE-1 cells were released from a 16 hour RO block, treated with Mps1-IN-1<br />
and fixed at the moment of telophase. Average of 3 independent experiments is shown +/- SD. At least 100 cells were counted per<br />
experiment. B) Immunofluorescence images acquired using an antibody against gH2AX (green), DAPI (blue) and Phalloidin (red) in<br />
U2OS cells released from a 3 hour RO block and fixed at the moment of anaphase (upper panel) or telophase (lower panel).<br />
