  • Title: On the mechanics of the first cleavage division of the sea urchin egg.
    Author: He X, Dembo M.
    Journal: Exp Cell Res; 1997 Jun 15; 233(2):252-73. PubMed ID: 9194488.
    Abstract:
    We describe a continuum model of the sea urchin egg during the first cleavage division. Using estimated values of the relevant mechanical parameters we then carry out numerical simulations of cytokinesis and conduct a systematic comparison of these computations with a variety of published experimental data.
