We reveal the effects of a new microtubule-destabilizing compound in human cells. C75 has a core thienoisoquinoline scaffold with several functional groups amenable to modification.

A CEP215-HSET complex links centrosomes with spindle poles and drives centrosome clustering in cancer. [PDF]
Numerical centrosome aberrations underlie certain developmental abnormalities and may promote cancer. A cell maintains normal centrosome numbers by coupling centrosome duplication with segregation, which is achieved through sustained association of each ...

Importin-beta and CRM1 control a RANBP2 spatiotemporal switch essential for mitotic kinetochore function [PDF]
Protein conjugation with small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) is a post-translational modification that modulates protein interactions and localisation.

Astrin regulates Aurora-A localization [PDF]
Alterations in the expression and activity of the centrosomal kinase, Aurora-A/STK15, affect genomic stability, disrupt the fidelity of centrosome duplication, and induce cellular transformation.

The Drosophila histone variant H2A.V works in concert with HP1 to promote kinetochore-driven microtubule formation [PDF]
Unlike other organisms that have evolved distinct H2A variants for different functions, Drosophila melanogaster has just one variant which is capable of filling many roles.

Cigarette smoke condensate induces centrosome clustering in normal lung epithelial cells
Background Unlike normal cells, cancer cells frequently have multiple centrosomes that can cluster to form bipolar mitotic spindles and allow for successful cell division.

Regulation of mitotic cytoskeleton dynamics and cytokinesis by integrin-linked kinase in retinoblastoma cells. [PDF]
During cell division integrin-linked kinase (ILK) has been shown to regulate microtubule dynamics and centrosome clustering, processes involved in cell cycle progression, and malignant transformation.

Ipl1/aurora kinase suppresses S-CDK-driven spindle formation during prophase I to ensure chromosome integrity during meiosis [PDF]
Cells coordinate spindle formation with DNA repair and morphological modifications to chromosomes prior to their segregation to prevent cell division with damaged chromosomes.
