A missense mutation in the PISA domain of HsSAS-6 causes autosomal recessive primary microcephaly in a large consanguineous Pakistani family [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Asymmetric cell division is essential for normal human brain development. Mutations in several genes encoding centrosomal proteins that participate in accurate cell division have been reported to cause autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH).

Realizing the physics of motile cilia synchronization with driven colloids

open access: yes, 2015
Cilia and flagella in biological systems often show large scale cooperative behaviors such as the synchronization of their beats in "metachronal waves".

The kinase ZYG-1 phosphorylates the cartwheel protein SAS-5 to drive centriole assembly in C. elegans

open access: yesEMBO Reports
Centrioles organize centrosomes, the cell’s primary microtubule-organizing centers (MTOCs). Centrioles double in number each cell cycle, and mis-regulation of this process is linked to diseases such as cancer and microcephaly. In C.

A founder CEP120 mutation in Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy expands the role of centriolar proteins in skeletal ciliopathies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (JATD) is a skeletal dysplasia characterized by a small thoracic cage and a range of skeletal and extra-skeletal anomalies.

The Centrosomes of Haploid and Diploid Cells Have an Equal Number of Centrioles in the Parasitoid Wasp Anisopteromalus Calandrae

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Background: The centrosome is the main center of the organization of microtubules (MT) in the cell, the origin for the formation of flagella and cilia, as well as the site of many regulatory intracellular processes.

Centrioles, centrosomes, and cilia in health and disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Centrioli su valjkaste strukture okružene pericentriolarnom tvari koje izgrađuju centrosome, a centriol naslijeđen od majke ima ključnu ulogu u formiranju trepetljika.

The evolution of centriole degradation in mouse sperm

open access: yesNature Communications
Centrioles are subcellular organelles found at the cilia base with an evolutionarily conserved structure and a shock absorber-like function. In sperm, centrioles are found at the flagellum base and are essential for embryo development in basal animals ...

9-fold symmetry is not essential for centriole elongation and formation of new centriole-like structures

open access: yesNature Communications
As daughter centrioles assemble during G2, they recruit conserved Ana3/RTTN followed by its partner Rcd4/PPP1R35. Together, this contributes to the subsequent recruitment of Ana1/CEP295, required for the centriole’s conversion to a centrosome.
