Emerging roles of centrosome cohesion

Open Biology, 2022
The centrosome, consisting of centrioles and the associated pericentriolar material, is the main microtubule-organizing centre (MTOC) in animal cells.

Cep295 is a conserved scaffold protein required for generation of a bona fide mother centriole

Nature Communications, 2016
Newly formed centrioles mature into functional mother centrioles. Here the authors show that the scaffolding protein Cep295 is recruited to the procentriole assembly site and assists daughter centriole assembly and daughter-to-mother centriole conversion.

Bimodal Binding of STIL to Plk4 Controls Proper Centriole Copy Number

Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: The number of centrioles is tightly controlled to ensure bipolar spindle assembly, which is a prerequisite to maintain genome integrity. However, our understanding of the fundamental principle that governs the formation of a single procentriole ...

The Cep57-pericentrin module organizes PCM expansion and centriole engagement

Nature Communications, 2019
Centriole disengagement occurs towards mitotic exit and involves cleavage of pericentrin, a component of the pericentriolar material. Here the authors show that depletion of the centrosomal protein Cep57 leads to precocious centriole disengagement, and ...

IFT proteins spatially control the geometry of cleavage furrow ingression and lumen positioning

Nature Communications, 2017
Cytokinesis relies on central spindle organization and provides a spatial landmark for lumen formation. Here, the authors show that intraflagellar transport proteins are required for the localization of the cytokinetic regulator Aurora B and subsequent ...

KIFC1 is Associated With Sarcomatoid Differentiation, Immune Response, and a Poor Prognosis in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]

Cancer Med
ABSTRACT Introduction Centrosome clustering is a cancer‐specific adaptation that allows cells with centrosome amplification to evade mitotic catastrophe and has emerged as a potential therapeutic target. We analyzed the prognostic role of several molecules related to centrosome clustering and found that Kinesin Family Member C1 (KIFC1) was strongly ...

Mutations in pericentrin cause Seckel syndrome with defective ATR-dependent DNA damage signaling [PDF]

, 2007
Large brain size is one of the defining characteristics of modern humans. Seckel syndrome (MIM 210600), a disorder of markedly reduced brain and body size, is associated with defective ATR-dependent DNA damage signaling.

Centrosome loss or amplification does not dramatically perturb global gene expression in Drosophila

Biology Open, 2012
Summary Centrosome defects are a common feature of many cancers, and they can predispose fly brain cells to form tumours. In flies, centrosome defects perturb the asymmetric division of the neural stem cells, but it is unclear how this might lead to ...

The Identification and Functional Analysis of mRNA Localizing to Centrosomes

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Centrosomes are multifunctional organelles tasked with organizing the microtubule cytoskeleton required for genome stability, intracellular trafficking, and ciliogenesis.

Congenital microcephaly [PDF]

, 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 ...
