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 ...

Regulation of cilia abundance in multiciliated cells

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Multiciliated cells (MCC) contain hundreds of motile cilia used to propel fluid over their surface. To template these cilia, each MCC produces between 100-600 centrioles by a process termed centriole amplification.

The Life Cycle of Centrioles [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2010
Centrioles organize the centrosome and nucleate the ciliary axoneme, and the centriole life cycle has many parallels to the chromosome cycle. The centriole cycle in animals begins at fertilization with the contribution of two centrioles by the male gamete.

Computational support for a scaffolding mechanism of centriole assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Centrioles are essential for forming cilia, flagella and centrosomes. Successful centriole assembly requires proteins of the SAS-6 family, which can form oligomeric ring structures with ninefold symmetry in vitro.

Over-elongation of centrioles in cancer promotes centriole amplification and chromosome missegregation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This deposit is composed by the main article plus the supplementary materials of the publication.Centrosomes are the major microtubule organising centres of animal cells.

A helical inner scaffold provides a structural basis for centriole cohesion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The ninefold radial arrangement of microtubule triplets (MTTs) is the hallmark of the centriole, a conserved organelle crucial for the formation of centrosomes and cilia.

Ciliary Membrane Lipid Homeostasis in Health and Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically delineates the distinct lipid landscapes of ciliary membranes, including the spatial organization of phosphoinositides, cholesterol, and sphingolipids. It elucidates how these lipids orchestrate ciliogenesis, signal transduction, and membrane dynamics in cilia beating, and highlights how their dysregulation drives ...

Evolution of centriole assembly [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2020
In this Primer, Nabais et al. discuss the evolution of the structure and function of centrioles and basal bodies, describe conserved centriole assembly features and the diversity in centriole architecture across eukaryotes, and highlight important outstanding evolutionary questions concerning centriole assembly.

Re-examining the role of Drosophila Sas-4 in centrosome assembly using two-colour-3D-SIM FRAP

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Centrosomes have many important functions and comprise a ‘mother’ and ‘daughter’ centriole surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM). The mother centriole recruits and organises the PCM and templates the formation of the daughter centriole. It has been

Male reproductive system in stenopodidean shrimps: Unveiling basal reproductive traits in shrimp‐like Pleocyemata (Stenopodidae and Spongicolidae)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Stenopodidea represents one of the basal lineages within Pleocyemata, yet the male reproductive system (MRS) of this group remains poorly understood, with limited information available regarding its morphology and function. This study provides the first detailed description of the MRS in four stenopodidean shrimp species from two families ...
