Abstract
The nuclear envelope separating the cell nucleus from the cytoplasm is a common feature of alleukaryotic cells, but its origin is still an enigma. Its early evolution appears closely linked with theevolution of the mitotic spindle apparatus. Many regulatory proteins are playing critical dual roles inspindle assembly as well as nuclear envelope and nuclear pore complex formation. During the evolution ofhigher eukaryotes, open mitosis evolved independently in the plant and animal lineages, leading to a markeddiversification of nuclear envelope compositions and roles in mitosis. Unique features of the plant nuclearenvelope include its function as mitotic spindle organizing center and the lack of nuclear lamins and associatedproteins. Nuclear envelope dynamics observed during mitosis appear to be similar between plants and animals.The nuclear envelope is absorbed into the endoplasmic reticulum after breakdown and reformed from the endoplasmicreticulum membrane pool after mitosis. In addition, nuclear envelope material contributes to the newlyforming cell plate in plant cells. Plant and animal cells might use the same underlying molecular signalsfor nuclear envelope reassembly, but modified as variations of a common theme.
