CENTRIOLE REPLICATION [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 1961
This paper describes the replication of centrioles during spermatogenesis in the Prosobranch snail, Viviparus malleatus Reeve. Sections for electron microscopy were cut from pieces of testis fixed in OsO4 and embedded in the polyester resin Vestopal W. Two kinds of spermatocytes are present.

Geometry of Morphogenesis

open access: yes, 2014
We introduce a formalism for the geometry of eukaryotic cells and organisms.Cells are taken to be star-convex with good biological reason. This allows for a convenient description of their extent in space as well as all manner of cell surface gradients ...

C-Nap1 mutation affects centriole cohesion and is associated with a Seckel-like syndrome in cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Caprine-like Generalized Hypoplasia Syndrome (SHGC) is an autosomal-recessive disorder in Montbéliarde cattle. Affected animals present a wide range of clinical features that include the following: delayed development with low birth weight, hind limb ...

Review of expansion microscopy combined with advanced imaging modalities

open access: yesJournal of Microscopy, Volume 301, Issue 3, Page 335-354, March 2026.
Abstract Expansion microscopy (ExM) is a powerful high‐resolution imaging technique that enhances the spatial resolution of conventional light microscopy by physically enlarging biological specimens by embedding and cross‐linking them in a swellable polymer network.

Production of Basal Bodies in bulk for dense multicilia formation [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Centriole number is normally under tight control and is directly linked to ciliogenesis. In cells that use centrosomes as mitotic spindle poles, one pre-existing mother centriole is allowed to duplicate only one daughter centriole per cell cycle.

Stabilization of Cartwheel-less Centrioles for Duplication Requires CEP295-Mediated Centriole-to-Centrosome Conversion

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Vertebrate centrioles lose their geometric scaffold, the cartwheel, during mitosis, concurrently with gaining the ability to recruit the pericentriolar material (PCM) and thereby function as the centrosome.

CCDC41 Drives Oocyte Meiotic Progression by Promoting Rab11a/Rab7‐Positive Vesicle Fusion with Target Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 8, 9 February 2026.
CCDC41 is essential for meiotic maturation in mouse oocytes through regulating Rab7‐positive endosomes fusion with lysosomes and Rab11a‐positive vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane. Abstract Coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein 41 (CCDC41), a core component of centriolar distal appendages involved in centriole assembly and ciliary vesicle docking,

The mother centriole plays an instructive role in defining cell geometry.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
Centriole positioning is a key step in establishment and propagation of cell geometry, but the mechanism of this positioning is unknown. The ability of pre-existing centrioles to induce formation of new centrioles at a defined angle relative to ...

Sperm morphology in five species of cicadettine cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadomorpha: Cicadidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Mature spermatozoa from five species of cicadas of the subfamily Cicadettinae (Quintilia wealei, Melampsalta leucoptera, Stagira simplex, Xosopsaltria thunbergi and Monomatapa matoposa) were examined by light and electron microscopy.

Crystal structures of the CPAP/STIL complex reveal its role in centriole assembly and human microcephaly

open access: yeseLife, 2013
Centrioles organise centrosomes and template cilia and flagella. Several centriole and centrosome proteins have been linked to microcephaly (MCPH), a neuro-developmental disease associated with small brain size. CPAP (MCPH6) and STIL (MCPH7) are required
