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

Cells, 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 ...

CEP44 ensures the formation of bona fide centriole wall, a requirement for the centriole-to-centrosome conversion

Nature Communications, 2020
During cell division, centrosomes duplicate and newly formed centrioles must undergo centriole-to-centrosome conversion, but the molecular details are unclear.

Regulation of cilia abundance in multiciliated cells

eLife, 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.

Centrioles take center stage [PDF]

Current Biology, 2001
Centrioles are among the most beautiful and mysterious of all cell organelles. Although the ultrastructure of centrioles has been studied in great detail ever since the advent of electron microscopy, these studies raised as many questions as they answered, and for a long time both the function and mode of duplication of centrioles remained ...

Dynamics of centriole amplification in centrosome-depleted brain multiciliated progenitors

Scientific Reports, 2019
Reproductive and respiratory organs, along with brain ventricles, are lined by multiciliated epithelial cells (MCC) that generate cilia-powered fluid flows.

Mechanisms of axoneme and centriole elimination in Naegleria gruberi

EMBO Reports
The early branching eukaryote Naegleria gruberi can transform transiently from an amoeboid life form lacking centrioles and flagella to a flagellate life form where these elements are present, followed by reversion to the amoeboid state.
