To write:
The asymmetric cell division usually depends on the cytoskeletal elements to produce or keep the asymmetric distribution of cellular factors. In S. cerevisiae, the factor localized to the bud by myosin motors. In Drosophila neuroblasts, the factors are localized apically by microtubules.
Introduction:
The cells ability to divide asymmetrically is very important. It helps in producing different cell types during development. The multicellular organism development includes the different cell types specification from a single fertilized egg. To produce this diversity, some of the cells undergo an asymmetric cell division. In this process segregate RNA determinants or protein into one of the two daughter cells. Thus, it determines the different cell fates.
