PLK4: Master Regulator of Centriole Duplication and Its Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT Centrosomes catalyze the assembly of a microtubule‐based bipolar spindle, essential for the precise chromosome segregation during cell division. At the center of this process lies Polo‐Like Kinase 4 (PLK4), the master regulator that controls the duplication of the centriolar core to ensure the correct balance of two centrosomes per dividing ...

Dissecting the Structural Organization, Recruitment and Activation Mechanisms of Centrosomal γ‐TuRCs
ABSTRACT Visualizing human centrosomes using cryo‐electron tomography revealed the native structure and molecular organization of γ‐tubulin ring complexes (γ‐TuRCs). γ‐TuRCs localized to two distinct centrosomal pools, one in the pericentriolar material (PCM) and another in the centriole lumen, which is released during mitosis.

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.

ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

LZTS2 Negatively Regulates Centrosomal CEP135 Levels and Microtubule Nucleation
ABSTRACT The microtubule cytoskeleton is a fundamental functional component of the cell. In vertebrate proliferating cells, centrosomes are the primary microtubule organizing center (MTOC), and their dysregulation has been linked to genomic instability and cancer.
