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.

Ccdc11 is a novel centriolar satellite protein essential for ciliogenesis and establishment of left-right asymmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The establishment of left–right (L-R) asymmetry in vertebrates is dependent on the sensory and motile functions of cilia during embryogenesis. Mutations in CCDC11 disrupt L-R asymmetry and cause congenital heart disease in humans, yet the molecular and ...

Selective autophagy maintains centrosome integrity and accurate mitosis by turnover of centriolar satellites

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The centrosome is the master orchestrator of mitotic spindle formation and chromosome segregation in animal cells. Centrosome abnormalities are frequently observed in cancer, but little is known of their origin and about pathways affecting centrosome ...

Inactivation of PLK4-STIL Module Prevents Self-Renewal and Triggers p53-Dependent Differentiation in Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2018
Summary: Centrioles account for centrosomes and cilia formation. Recently, a link between centrosomal components and human developmental disorders has been established.

Astrin is required for the maintenance of sister chromatid cohesion and centrosome integrity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Faithful chromosome segregation in mitosis requires the formation of a bipolar mitotic spindle with stably attached chromosomes. Once all of the chromosomes are aligned, the connection between the sister chromatids is severed by the cysteine protease ...

STED nanoscopy of the centrosome linker reveals a CEP68-organized, periodic rootletin network anchored to a C-Nap1 ring at centrioles

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The integrity of the centrosome linker that joints both centrosomes of a cell into one microtubule-organizing unit plays important roles in cell organization, chromosome segregation, and cancer development. However, little is known about the

Localization of MLH3 at the Centrosomes [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2014
Mutations in human DNA mismatch repair (MMR) genes are commonly associated with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC). MLH1 protein heterodimerizes with PMS2, PMS1, and MLH3 to form MutLα, MutLβ, and MutLγ, respectively. We reported recently stable expression of GFP-linked MLH3 in human cell lines.

Organization of the Proteostasis Network of Membraneless Organelles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A comprehensive mapping of the proteostasis network (PN) across membraneless organelles (MLOs) reveals how central PN components coordinate MLO regulation. The analysis uncovers principles of specificity and promiscuity within the PN. The findings suggest that HSP70 chaperones act as generic MLO regulators, while client specific HSP70 co‐chaperones may

Tau-tubulin kinase 2 restrains microtubule-depolymerizer KIF2A to support primary cilia growth

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling
Background Primary cilia facilitate cellular signalling and play critical roles in development, homeostasis, and disease. Their assembly is under the control of Tau-Tubulin Kinase 2 (TTBK2), a key enzyme mutated in patients with spinocerebellar ataxia ...

Immunofluorescence-based Determination of Centrosome Number in Tissue Samples

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2019
Centrosome numerical abnormalities have been reported in a variety of tumors. Centrosome numbers in cancer cells display both inter-tumor and intra-tumor heterogeneity.
