Asters, made of microtubules, anchor centrioles to the cell membrane. Spindle fibers, also from microtubules, attach to kinetochores on centromeres via kinetochore fibers.
Gli aster ancorano i centrosomi alla membrana cellulare e sono composti da microtubuli. Le fibre del fuso, anch'esse fatte di microtubuli, si attaccano ai cinetocori sui centromeri tramite le fibre del cinetocore.
