Mouse egg cells make room before dividing unequally
Live imaging experiments in mouse egg cells revealed a local membrane collapse that created space before an unequal cell division needed for maturation.Live imaging experiments in mouse egg cells revealed a local membrane collapse that created space before an unequal cell division needed for maturation.

Who was studiedMouse oocytes
What changedLocal membrane collapse created space around mouse egg cells before polar-body release
The catchThe experiments address egg-cell maturation, not fertility outcomes
