Phosphoproteins are components of mitotic microtubule organizing centers. [PDF]
Protein phosphorylation has been suggested as an important control mechanism for the events leading toward the initiation and completion of mitosis. Using a monoclonal antibody recognizing a class of phosphoproteins abundant in mitotic cells, we demonstrated the localization of a subset of these phosphoproteins to several discrete mitotic structures ...

Centriole as microtubule-organizing centers for marginal bands of molluscan erythrocytes [PDF]
The erythrocytes of blood clams (arcidae) are flattened, elliptical, and nucleated. They contain elliptical marginal bands (MBs) of microtubules, each physically associated with a pair of centrioles marginal bands (MBs) of microtubles, each physically associated with a pair of centrioles (Cohen, W., and I. Nemhauser, 1980, J.

How COVID-19 Hijacks the Cytoskeleton: Therapeutic Implications
The SARS-CoV-2 virus invades and replicates within host cells by “hijacking” biomolecular machinery, gaining control of the microtubule cytoskeleton. After attaching to membrane receptors and entering cells, the SARS-CoV-2 virus co-opts the dynamic intra-

Self-assembly of pericentriolar material in interphase cells lacking centrioles
The major microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) in animal cells, the centrosome, comprises a pair of centrioles surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM), which nucleates and anchors microtubules. Centrosome assembly depends on PCM binding to centrioles,
