Generation of micronuclei during interphase by coupling between cytoplasmic membrane blebbing and nuclear budding.

Micronucleation, mediated by interphase nuclear budding, has been repeatedly suggested, but the process is still enigmatic. In the present study, we confirmed the previous observation that there are lamin B1-negative micronuclei in addition to the positive ones. A large cytoplasmic bleb was found to...
