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.

Ontology-Based MEDLINE Document Classification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
An increasing and overwhelming amount of biomedical information is available in the research literature mainly in the form of free-text. Biologists need tools that automate their information search and deal with the high volume and ambiguity of free-text.

Stabilization of Cartwheel-less Centrioles for Duplication Requires CEP295-Mediated Centriole-to-Centrosome Conversion

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Vertebrate centrioles lose their geometric scaffold, the cartwheel, during mitosis, concurrently with gaining the ability to recruit the pericentriolar material (PCM) and thereby function as the centrosome.

A novel Cep120-dependent mechanism inhibits centriole maturation in quiescent cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The two centrioles of the centrosome in quiescent cells are inherently asymmetric structures that differ in age, morphology and function. How these asymmetric properties are established and maintained during quiescence remains unknown. Here, we show that

Q&A: Who needs a centrosome? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The centrosome has several functions. The central one is as the major microtubule organizing center (MTOC) in proliferating animal cells: thus, it helps to organize the microtubules that form the mitotic spindle in dividing cells, and orchestrate a ...

Centriole movements in mammalian epithelial cells during cytokinesis

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2010
Background In cytokinesis, when the cleavage furrow has been formed, the two centrioles in each daughter cell separate. It has been suggested that the centrioles facilitate and regulate cytokinesis to some extent.

Congenital microcephaly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The underlying etiologies of genetic congenital microcephaly are complex and multifactorial. Recently, with the exponential growth in the identification and characterization of novel genetic causes of congenital microcephaly, there has been a ...

BCAP is a centriolar satellite protein and inhibitor of ciliogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The centrosome and cilium are organelles with important roles in microtubule organisation, cell division, cell signalling, embryogenesis, and tissue homeostasis. The two organelles are mutually exclusive.

Cell Cycle‐Specific Regulation of Centrosome Clustering Dynamics in Cancer Cells by the Multifunctional Kinesin HSET

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CDK5RAP2 associates with the kinesin HSET and forms co‐condensates. HSET motors drive the directional transport of CDK5RAP2 condensates toward microtubule minus ends. During mitosis, HSET self‐assembly further stabilizes clustered centrosomes, thereby enabling pseudo‐bipolar spindle formation in cancer cells with supernumerary centrosomes. Upon mitotic

LZTS2 Negatively Regulates Centrosomal CEP135 Levels and Microtubule Nucleation. [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton (Hoboken)
ABSTRACT The microtubule cytoskeleton is a fundamental functional component of the cell. In vertebrate proliferating cells, centrosomes are the primary microtubule organizing center (MTOC), and their dysregulation has been linked to genomic instability and cancer.
