Synthesis of spectrin in avian erythroid cells: association of nascent polypeptide chains with the cytoskeleton. [PDF]

open access: green, 1983
The site of synthesis of spectrin was investigated in erythroid cells from 10-day chicken embryos. After various periods of [35S]methionine incorporation the cells were lysed in a Triton X-100 (TX-100)-containing buffer and were separated into a TX-100 ...

The Cytoskeleton in Spermatogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction, 2019
As germ cells progress through spermatogenesis, they undergo a dramatic transformation, wherein a single, diploid spermatogonial stem cell ultimately produces thousands of highly specialised, haploid spermatozoa. The cytoskeleton is an integral aspect of

Hormones and the Cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature, 1956
THE object of this communication is to present the hypothesis that hormones modify the ‘cytoskeleton’ of the cell. Though I have held this view for some time, and have discussed it with others, I have not advanced it formally, because until now it did not appear to be useful.

CENP-E activation by Aurora A and B controls kinetochore fibrous corona disassembly

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Accurate chromosome segregation in mitosis depends on multiprotein structures called kinetochores that are built on the centromeric region of sister chromatids and serve to capture mitotic spindle microtubules.

Composition and function of the C1b/C1f region in the ciliary central apparatus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Motile cilia are ultrastructurally complex cell organelles with the ability to actively move. The highly conserved central apparatus of motile 9 × 2 + 2 cilia is composed of two microtubules and several large microtubule-bound projections, including the ...

Actin cytoskeleton remodeling at the cancer cell side of the immunological synapse: good, bad, or both?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Cytotoxic lymphocytes (CLs), specifically cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells, are indispensable guardians of the immune system and orchestrate the recognition and elimination of cancer cells. Upon encountering a cancer cell, CLs establish a

Actin cytoskeleton depolymerization increases matrix metalloproteinase gene expression in breast cancer cells by promoting translocation of cysteine-rich protein 2 to the nucleus

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
The actin cytoskeleton plays a critical role in cancer cell invasion and metastasis; however, the coordination of its multiple functions remains unclear. Actin dynamics in the cytoplasm control the formation of invadopodia, which are membrane protrusions

Fueling the cytoskeleton – links between cell metabolism and actin remodeling

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2021
Attention has long focused on the actin cytoskeleton as a unit capable of organizing into ensembles that control cell shape, polarity, migration and the establishment of intercellular contacts that support tissue architecture.

C53 Interacting with UFM1-Protein Ligase 1 Regulates Microtubule Nucleation in Response to ER Stress

open access: yesCells, 2022
ER distribution depends on microtubules, and ER homeostasis disturbance activates the unfolded protein response resulting in ER remodeling. CDK5RAP3 (C53) implicated in various signaling pathways interacts with UFM1-protein ligase 1 (UFL1), which ...

The evolution of the cytoskeleton [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2011
The cytoskeleton is a system of intracellular filaments crucial for cell shape, division, and function in all three domains of life. The simple cytoskeletons of prokaryotes show surprising plasticity in composition, with none of the core filament-forming proteins conserved in all lineages.
