Interaction of CK1δ with γTuSC ensures proper microtubule assembly and spindle positioning. [PDF]
, 2015 Casein kinase 1δ (CK1δ) family members associate with microtubule-organizing centers (MTOCs) from yeast to humans, but their mitotic roles and targets have yet to be identified.

eLife, 2015 Duplication of the yeast centrosome (called the spindle pole body, SPB) is thought to occur through a series of discrete steps that culminate in insertion of the new SPB into the nuclear envelope (NE).

Stem cell decisions:A twist of fate or a niche market? [PDF]
, 2014 Establishing and maintaining cell fate in the right place at the right time is a key requirement for normal tissue maintenance. Stem cells are at the core of this process.

Electrospinning of Well‐Aligned P(VDF‐TrFE) Fibers Using a Benign Solvent
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.The role of solvent properties is explored in electrospinning a piezoelectric polymer popular in electromechanical devices. The relationship between solvent boiling point, process stability and fiber quality is viewed through the lens of morphological and crystalline phase characterization.

The fission yeast SPB component Dms1 is required to initiate forespore membrane formation and maintain meiotic SPB components. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The spindle pole body (SPB) plays a central role in spore plasma membrane formation in addition to its recognized role in microtubule organization. During meiosis, a biomembrane called the forespore membrane (FSM) is newly formed at the SPB.

Mitotic spindle scaling during Xenopus development by kif2a and importin α. [PDF]
, 2012 Early development of many animals is characterized by rapid cleavages that dramatically decrease cell size, but how the mitotic spindle adapts to changing cell dimensions is not understood.

Purification of Fluorescently Labeled Saccharomyces cerevisiae Spindle Pole Bodies [PDF]
, 2016 Centrosomes are components of the mitotic spindle responsible for organizing microtubules and establishing a bipolar spindle for accurate chromosome segregation. In budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the centrosome is called the spindle pole body, a highly organized trilaminar structure embedded in the nuclear envelope.

Mass spectrometry imaging of N‐linked glycans: Fundamentals and recent advances
Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.Abstract With implications in several medical conditions, N‐linked glycosylation is one of the most important posttranslation modifications present in all living organisms. Due to their nontemplate synthesis, glycan structures are extraordinarily complex and require multiple analytical techniques for complete structural elucidation.

Budding Yeast BFA1 Has Multiple Positive Roles in Directing Late Mitotic Events
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2018 The proper regulation of cell cycle transitions is paramount to the maintenance of cellular genome integrity. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the mitotic exit network (MEN) is a Ras-like signaling cascade that effects the transition from M phase to G1 ...

Suppression of Chemically Induced and Spontaneous Mouse Oocyte Activation by AMP-Activated Protein Kinase [PDF]
, 2013 Oocyte activation is an important process triggered by fertilization that initiates embryonic development. However, parthenogenetic activation can occur either spontaneously or with chemical treatments.
