“…Early efforts to define the molecular composition of the mitotic apparatus by Amano (1954), Stich (1954), Mazia (1955), Shimamura and Ohta (1956), Rustad (1959), Zimmerman (1960 and others revealed evidence for RNA. These studies had several limitations that have been largely overcome in later years due to the development of higher resolution imaging and more specific histochemical probes.…”

“…4,36) and presence of ribosome-like particles (12, 33) in the mitotic apparatus has caused speculation that synthesis of protein and filament formation take place concurrently (12). In regard to such a hypothesis, Went (41) has presented contrary evidence and our study of the micronucleus shows that no ribosomes are present when the micronuclear filaments aggregate and function.…”

“…The question of whether centrosomes or centrioles contain nucleic acids has remained unresolved since biochemical studies of the mitotic apparatus in the 1950s revealed ''pentosenucleic acid'' in the polar regions (4)(5)(6)(7)(8). The consensus, expressed in the most recent review on the subject, concludes that evidence for DNA in centrosomes is lacking and that significant evidence exists to the contrary (9).…”
