Investigation of human centrosomes - with a special focus on the function of Cep152 and Cep192 in centriole duplication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Centrioles are symmetrical, barrel-shaped, microtubule-based structures, that serve as building platforms for the formation of centrosomes and cilia. In dividing cells, they recruit a matrix of proteins called pericentriolar material (PCM) to form the ...

FancJ regulates interstrand crosslinker induced centrosome amplification through the activation of polo-like kinase 1

open access: yesBiology Open, 2013
Summary DNA damage response (DDR) and the centrosome cycle are two of the most critical processes for maintaining a stable genome in animals. Sporadic evidence suggests a connection between these two processes.

Centrosome polarization in T cells: A task for formins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) engagement triggers the rapid reorientation of the centrosome, which is associated with the secretory machinery, toward the immunological synapse (IS) for polarized protein trafficking.

Finding novel vulnerabilities of hypomorphic BRCA1 alleles

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Synthetic lethality screens performed to identify novel vulnerabilities often model complete gene loss, thereby overlooking patient‐derived hypomorphic mutations. In this study, we have performed genome‐wide CRISPR screens on BRCA1 hypomorphic mutations, showing BRCA1I26A behaves like wild‐type, while BRCA1R1699Q mimics deficiency. Furthermore, we have

Centrosome-intrinsic mechanisms modulate centrosome integrity during fever [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The centrosome is critical for cell division, ciliogenesis, membrane trafficking, and immunological synapse function. The immunological synapse is part of the immune response, which is often accompanied by fever/heat stress (HS). Here we provide evidence

Stability of the small γ-tubulin complex requiresHCA66, a protein of the centrosome and the nucleolus.

open access: yes, 2009
To investigate changes at the centrosome during the cell cycle,we analyzed the composition of the pericentriolar materialfrom unsynchronized and S-phase-arrested cells by gelelectrophoresis and mass spectrometry.

An intact centrosome is required for the maintenance of polarization during directional cell migration.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundEstablishing and maintaining polarization is critical during cell migration. It is known that the centrosome contains numerous proteins whose roles of organizing the microtubule network range include nucleation, stabilization and severing.

Cigarette smoke condensate induces centrosome clustering in normal lung epithelial cells

open access: yesCancer Medicine, 2023
Background Unlike normal cells, cancer cells frequently have multiple centrosomes that can cluster to form bipolar mitotic spindles and allow for successful cell division.

Mutant NPM1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Initiation and Maintenance

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
NPM1 mutations drive acute myeloid leukemia by acting as neomorphic transcriptional regulators that cooperate with Menin–MLL and XPO1 to sustain HOX/MEIS1 expression and block differentiation. Targeting these mutant‐specific transcriptional dependencies provides a rational therapeutic strategy for NPM1‐mutated AML.

Characterization of the RhoGAP proteins RGA-3 and RGA-4 and the centrosomal protein SAS-5 in the early "Caenorhabditis elegans" embryo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The Caenorhabditis elegans embryo serves as a great tool to study cell biological processes like polarization and cell divison. The first cell division is unequal and cell polarization is dependant on the Rho GTPase regulated rearrangement of the cell ...
