Lamin immunostaining recapitulates TEM observations. Cells were stained for lamin, tubulin, and DNA. A lamin meshwork encases the nucleus in interphase and early prometaphase cells (PM1). It begins to disintegrate in the PM2 stage and continues to disassemble during the PM3 stage. The nuclear lamina is completely disassembled in late prometaphase (PM4) and metaphase cells. Note that fragments of the nuclear lamina persist from prometaphase till late telophase. Scale bars: 5 μm
