Cep63 and cep152 cooperate to ensure centriole duplication. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Centrosomes consist of two centrioles embedded in pericentriolar material and function as the main microtubule organising centres in dividing animal cells.

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.Exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation is the main etiologic driver of nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), including basal cell (BCC) and cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas (cSCC), which are the most prevalent types of cancers in the US. In this study, we demonstrate that the serine/threonine kinase Polo‐like kinase 4 (PLK4) is overexpressed in NMSCs ...

Self-organization of Plk4 regulates symmetry breaking in centriole duplication
Nature Communications, 2019 During centriole duplication, Plk4 regulates formation of a single daughter centriole adjacent to the mother centriole, but the mechanism is unclear. Here, the authors show that Plk4 can undergo liquid–liquid phase separation and that the condensation ...

eLife, 2017 The centriole/basal body is a eukaryotic organelle that plays essential roles in cell division and signaling. Among five known core centriole proteins, SPD-2/Cep192 is the first recruited to the site of daughter centriole formation and regulates the ...

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Mouse SAS-6 is required for centriole formation in embryos and integrity in embryonic stem cells
eLifeSAS-6 (SASS6) is essential for centriole formation in human cells and other organisms but its functions in the mouse are unclear. Here, we report that Sass6-mutant mouse embryos lack centrioles, activate the mitotic surveillance cell death pathway, and ...

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 6, Page 1179-1191, June 2026.ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Patterns of selection against centrosome amplification in human cell lines.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 The presence of extra centrioles, termed centrosome amplification, is a hallmark of cancer. The distribution of centriole numbers within a cancer cell population appears to be at an equilibrium maintained by centriole overproduction and selection ...

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.Monoclonal antibodies targeting the interdomain region of polo‐like kinase 1 (PLK1) were delivered into living HeLa cells by electroporation to directly modulate mitotic progression. This intracellular antibody approach provides a new tool to probe PLK1 function and highlights the potential of antibodies to regulate key mitotic regulators inside cells.
