Mdm2-Mediated Downmodulation of GRK2 Restricts Centrosome Separation for Proper Chromosome Congression

open access: yesCells, 2021
The timing of centrosome separation and the distance moved apart influence the formation of the bipolar spindle, affecting chromosome stability. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling induces early centrosome separation through downstream G ...

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

open access: yes, 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.

Cancer: CINful Centrosomes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2009
The regulation of centrosome number is lost in many tumors and the presence of extra centrosomes correlates with chromosomal instability. Recent work now reveals how extra centrosomes cause chromosome mis-segregation in tumor cells.

APC/CFZR-1 Controls SAS-5 Levels To Regulate Centrosome Duplication in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
As the primary microtubule-organizing center, centrosomes play a key role in establishing mitotic bipolar spindles that secure correct transmission of genomic content.

Centrosome Defects in Hematological Malignancies: Molecular Mechanisms and Therapeutic Insights

open access: yesBlood Science, 2022
Defects in centrosomes are associated with a broad spectrum of hematological malignancies, such as leukemia and lymphoma. Centrosomes in these malignancies display both numerical and structural aberrations, including alterations in the number and size of

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 ...

Uncoupling of DNA Replication and Centrosome Duplication Cycles Is a Primary Cause of Haploid Instability in Mammalian Somatic Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Mammalian haploid somatic cells are unstable and prone to diploidize, but the cause of haploid instability remains largely unknown. Previously, we found that mammalian haploid somatic cells suffer chronic centrosome loss stemming from the uncoupling of ...

Epigenetic alterations impede epithelial-mesenchymal transition by modulating centrosome amplification and Myc/RAS axis in triple negative breast cancer cells

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Alterations in centrosome proteins may result in centrosome abnormalities such as disorganized spindles and centrosome amplification, leading to aneuploidy and genomic instability.

Proteins implicated in muscular dystrophy and cancer are functional constituents of the centrosome

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2022
This study demonstrates that the muscular dystrophy-associated proteins dystrophin, utrophin, dysferlin, and calpain-3 localize to the centrosome and that their absence leads to excess centrosomes, compromised nuclear morphology, impaired centrosome ...

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.
