Positioning cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2009
Cytokinesis is the terminal step of the cell cycle during which a mother cell divides into daughter cells. Often, the machinery of cytokinesis is positioned in such a way that daughter cells are born roughly equal in size. However, in many specialized cell types or under certain environmental conditions, the cell division machinery is placed at ...

Dynamin and Cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yesTraffic, 2006
Animal and plant cytokineses appear morphologically distinct. Recent studies, however, have revealed that these cellular processes have many things in common, including the requirement of co‐ordinated membrane trafficking and cytoskeletal dynamics. At the intersection of these two processes are the members of the dynamin family of ubiquitous eukaryotic

Cytokinesis in Eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2002
SUMMARYCytokinesis is the final event of the cell division cycle, and its completion results in irreversible partition of a mother cell into two daughter cells. Cytokinesis was one of the first cell cycle events observed by simple cell biological techniques; however, molecular characterization of cytokinesis has been slowed by its particular resistance

Cytokinesis in Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2003
SUMMARYWork on two diverse rod-shaped bacteria, Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, has defined a set of about 10 conserved proteins that are important for cell division in a wide range of eubacteria. These proteins are directed to the division site by the combination of two negative regulatory systems.

Loss of a Rho-Regulated Actin Nucleator, mDia2, Impairs Cytokinesis during Mouse Fetal Erythropoiesis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2013
The small GTPase Rho and mDia2, a Rho-regulated actin nucleator, function as critical regulators of cytokinesis in cultured cells. However, their involvement in cytokinesis during mammalian development remains unknown.

Cytokinesis in trypanosomes

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2012
AbstractCytokinesis is a crucial step in the cell division cycle whereby the cell membrane and underlying cortex is remodelled and drawn together to create two new daughter cells. While in many eukaryotic systems this process is accomplished by an actomyosin contractile ring, the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei displays an unusual mechanism for ...

Functional Analyses of Cytokinesis Regulators in Bloodstream Stage Trypanosoma brucei Parasites Identify Functions and Regulations Specific to the Life Cycle Stage

open access: yesmSphere, 2019
The early divergent protozoan parasite Trypanosoma brucei alternates between the insect vector and the mammalian hosts during its life cycle and proliferates through binary cell fission. The cell cycle control system in T.

Comprehensive analysis of the human ESCRT-III-MIT domain interactome reveals new cofactors for cytokinetic abscission

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The 12 related human ESCRT-III proteins form filaments that constrict membranes and mediate fission, including during cytokinetic abscission. The C-terminal tails of polymerized ESCRT-III subunits also bind proteins that contain Microtubule-Interacting ...

Septin Remodeling During Mammalian Cytokinesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Cytokinesis mediates the final separation of a mother cell into two daughter cells. Septins are recruited to the cleavage furrow at an early stage. During cytokinetic progression the septin cytoskeleton is constantly rearranged, ultimately leading to a ...

Extracellular Vesicles of Human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells Contain MicroRNAs Associated to Proto-Oncogenes: Implications in Cytokinesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2020
The human Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells (hPDLSCs) exhibit self-renewal capacity and clonogenicity potential. The Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) secreted by hPDLSCs are particles containing lipids, proteins, mRNAs, and non-coding RNAs, among which ...
