Choreography of the centrosome [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
More than a century ago, the centrosome was discovered and described as "the true division organ of the cell". Electron microscopy revealed that a centrosome is an amorphous structure or pericentriolar protein matrix that surrounds a pair of well-organized centrioles.

Polo-like kinase 1 independently controls microtubule-nucleating capacity and size of the centrosome

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Centrosomes are composed of a centriolar core surrounded by a pericentriolar material (PCM) matrix that docks microtubule-nucleating γ-tubulin complexes.

Centriolar distal appendages activate the centrosome‐PIDDosome‐p53 signalling axis via ANKRD26

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 2020
Centrosome amplification results into genetic instability and predisposes cells to neoplastic transformation. Supernumerary centrosomes trigger p53 stabilization dependent on the PIDDosome (a multiprotein complex composed by PIDD1, RAIDD and Caspase‐2 ...

Regulated changes in material properties underlie centrosome disassembly during mitotic exit

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2020
Centrosomes withstand microtubule-mediated forces during spindle assembly, yet they are disassembled by similar forces during mitotic exit. Mittasch et al.

Centrosome defects cause microcephaly by activating the 53BP1‐USP28‐TP53 mitotic surveillance pathway

open access: yesEMBO Journal, 2020
Mutations in centrosome genes deplete neural progenitor cells (NPCs) during brain development, causing microcephaly. While NPC attrition is linked to TP53‐mediated cell death in several microcephaly models, how TP53 is activated remains unclear.

Centrosome dysfunction: a link between senescence and tumor immunity

open access: yesSignal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2020
Centrosome aberrations are hallmarks of human cancers and contribute to the senescence process. Structural and numerical centrosome abnormalities trigger mitotic errors, cellular senescence, cell death, genomic instability and/or aneuploidy, resulting in

Dual pathway spindle assembly increases both the speed and the fidelity of mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Roughly half of all animal somatic cell spindles assemble by the classical prophase pathway, in which the centrosomes separate ahead of nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD).

Primary cilium-dependent cAMP/PKA signaling at the centrosome regulates neuronal migration

open access: yesScience Advances, 2020
The primary cilium regulates neuronal migration via cyclic AMP production activating protein kinase A at the centrosome. The primary cilium (PC) is a small centrosome-assembled organelle, protruding from the surface of most eukaryotic cells.

Emerging roles of centrosome cohesion

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

Generation and Characterization of a Tissue-Specific Centrosome Indicator Mouse Line. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Centrosomes are major microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) that play an important role in chromosome segregation during cell division. Centrosomes provide a stable anchor for microtubules, constituting the centers of the spindle poles in mitotic cells,
