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 ...

Truncation of POC1A associated with short stature and extreme insulin resistance [PDF]
, 2015 We describe a female proband with primordial dwarfism, skeletal dysplasia, facial dysmorphism, extreme dyslipidaemic insulin resistance and fatty liver associated with a novel homozygous frameshift mutation in POC1A, predicted to affect two of the three ...

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 centrosomal deubiquitylase USP21 regulates Gli1 transcriptional activity and stability [PDF]
, 2016 USP21 is a centrosome-associated deubiquitylase (DUB) that has been implicated in the formation of primary cilia - crucial organelles for the regulation of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway in vertebrates. Here, we identify KCTD6 - a cullin-3 E3-ligase

Role for polo-like kinase 4 in mediation of cytokinesis. [PDF]
, 2019 The mitotic protein polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) plays a critical role in centrosome duplication for cell division. By using immunofluorescence, we confirm that PLK4 is localized to centrosomes.

Actin nucleation at the centrosome controls lymphocyte polarity
Nature Communications, 2016 Cell polarity is marked by re-orientation of the centrosome, but the mechanisms governing centrosome polarization are poorly understood. Here Obino et al.

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.

Meier–Gorlin syndrome and Wolf–Hirschhorn syndrome: two developmental disorders highlighting the importance of efficient DNA replication for normal development and neurogenesis [PDF]
, 2013 Microcephaly represents one of the most obvious clinical manifestations of impaired neurogenesis. Defects in the DNA damage response, in DNA repair, and structural abnormalities in centrosomes, centrioles and the spindle microtubule network have all been
