          The Spindly product recruits dynein to kinetochores.

          (Griffis et al., 2007)

          dsRNA has been synthesised for this gene and transfected into S2 cells. Spindly dsRNA causes interphase S2 cells to adopt an abnormal morphology with spiky and elongated microtubule-rich projections. The majority of dsRNA-treated cells become arrested in metaphase, an effect which can be rescued with a Spindly transgene. Spindly-depleted cells require 50% more time to form a metaphase plate compared with untreated cells.

          (Griffis et al., 2007)

          RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.

          (Boutros et al., 2004)
          Origin and Etymology
          Discoverer
          Etymology

          Named "Spindly" due to the spindle-shaped interphase cell morphology and metaphase spindle phenotypes observed when this gene product is depleted.
