Fig. 1. Self-organization in the melanophore cell fragment. Live fluorescent images of MTs are shown. Pigment granules can be seen as black speckles. (Left) A random MT network and uniformly dispersed pigment granules before adrenalin treatment (dynein stimulation). (Right) After dynein is stimulated, pigment granules aggregate and MTs re-organize into a polar aster.
