Abstract
S. cerevisiae can be arrested in metaphase by depleting Cdc20. We describe (1) how to achieve this arrest and verify it, (2) how to label cell surface glycans covalently to distinguish mother from bud, and (3) how to detect the nucleolus and learn that it remains in the mother domain upon arrest. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tartakoff et al. (2021), Rai et al. (2017), and Zapanta Rinonos et al. (2014).
