Evolutionary conservation of centriole rotational asymmetry in the human centrosome

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2021
Centrioles are formed by microtubule triplets in a nine-fold symmetric arrangement. In flagellated protists and in animal multiciliated cells, accessory structures tethered to specific triplets render the centrioles rotationally asymmetric, a property ...

The sperm centrioles

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 2020
Centrioles are eukaryotic subcellular structures that produce and regulate massive cytoskeleton superstructures. They form centrosomes and cilia, regulate new centriole formation, anchor cilia to the cell, and regulate cilia function. These basic centriolar functions are executed in sperm cells during their amplification from spermatogonial stem cells ...

Functional Analysis of Hydrolethalus Syndrome Protein HYLS1 in Ciliogenesis and Spermatogenesis in Drosophila

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Cilia and flagella are conserved subcellular organelles, which arise from centrioles and play critical roles in development and reproduction of eukaryotes. Dysfunction of cilia leads to life-threatening ciliopathies.

Atypical centrioles are present in Tribolium sperm [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2017
Typical centrioles are made of microtubules organized in ninefold symmetry. Most animal somatic cells have two centrioles for normal cell division and function.

A role for Gle1, a regulator of DEAD-box RNA helicases, at centrosomes and basal bodies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Control of organellar assembly and function is critical to eukaryotic homeostasis and survival. Gle1 is a highly conserved regulator of RNA-dependent DEAD-box ATPase proteins, with critical roles in both mRNA export and translation.

Centriole length control

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2021
Centrioles are microtubule-based structures involved in cell division and ciliogenesis. Centriole formation is a highly regulated cellular process and aberrations in centriole structure, size or numbers have implications in multiple human pathologies. In this review, we propose that the proteins that control centriole length can be subdivided into two ...

Astrin is required for the maintenance of sister chromatid cohesion and centrosome integrity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Faithful chromosome segregation in mitosis requires the formation of a bipolar mitotic spindle with stably attached chromosomes. Once all of the chromosomes are aligned, the connection between the sister chromatids is severed by the cysteine protease ...

Ana1 helps recruit Polo to centrioles to promote mitotic PCM assembly and centriole elongation

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2021
Polo kinase (PLK1 in mammals) is a master cell cycle regulator that is recruited to various subcellular structures, often by its polo-box domain (PBD), which binds to phosphorylated S-pS/pT motifs.

Centriole inheritance [PDF]

open access: yesPrion, 2008
Early cell biologists perceived centrosomes to be permanent cellular structures. Centrosomes were observed to reproduce once each cycle and to orchestrate assembly a transient mitotic apparatus that segregated chromosomes and a centrosome to each daughter at the completion of cell division.

Rapid Evolution of Sperm Produces Diverse Centriole Structures that Reveal the Most Rudimentary Structure Needed for Function

open access: yesCells, 2018
Centrioles are ancient subcellular protein-based organelles that maintain a conserved number and structure across many groups of eukaryotes. Centriole number (two per cells) is tightly regulated; each pre-existing centriole nucleates only one centriole ...
