Architecture of the centriole cartwheel‐containing region revealed by cryo‐electron tomography

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved barrels of microtubule triplets that form the core of the centrosome and the base of the cilium. While the crucial role of the proximal region in centriole biogenesis has been well documented, its native architecture ...

Centriole foci persist in starfish oocytes despite Polo-like kinase 1 inactivation or loss of microtubule nucleation activity

Pierre Gönczy, Nils Kalbfuss, Marie Juliette Ségolène Pierron

Centrioles must be eliminated or inactivated from the oocyte to ensure that only the two functional centrioles contributed by the sperm are present in the zygote. Such removal can occur during oogenesis, as in Drosophila, where departure of Polo kinase fro ...

Novel features of centriole polarity and cartwheel stacking revealed by cryo-tomography

Pierre Gönczy, Davide Demurtas, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Sergey Nazarov, Alexandra Bezler, Paul Guichard, Veronika Nemcíková Villímová

Centrioles are polarized microtubule-based organelles that seed the formation of cilia, and which assemble from a cartwheel containing stacked ring oligomers ofSAS-6 proteins. A cryo-tomography map of centrioles from the termite flagellateTrichonymphaspp. ...

A Structural Design Methodology for Freeform Timber Plate Structures Using Wood-Wood Connections

Anh Chi Nguyen

Over the past decades, timber has gained popularity as a sustainable building material because of the rising environmental awareness. Furthermore, the resurgence of timber has also been encouraged by the advent of the digital age during the 21st century. T ...

Centriole assembly at a glance

Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos

The centriole organelle consists of microtubules (MTs) that exhibit a striking 9-fold radial symmetry. Centrioles play fundamental roles across eukaryotes, notably in cell signaling, motility and division. In this Cell Science at a Glance article and accom ...

Protein Engineering Tools to Explore the Function of Protein Post-Translational Modifications for Chromatin and Microtubule Cytoskeletal Biology

Ninad Dilip Agashe

Protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) play a crucial role in expanding the protein diversity and are one of the major mechanisms through which cells respond to ever changing environmental cues. The function of two of the most important cellular c ...

The role of OCT4 and SOX2 in regulating chromatin accessibility and cell fate across the cell cycle in embryonic stem cells

Torgil Elias Friman

Precise spatiotemporal regulation of gene expression is essential for development and homeostasis of complex organisms. This is achieved in large part by sequence-specific transcription factors (TF) that bind to genomic regulatory elements to activate or r ...

Live imaging screen reveals that TYRO3 and GAK ensure accurate spindle positioning in human cells

Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Benita Wolf

Proper spindle positioning is crucial for spatial cell division control. Spindle positioning in human cells relies on a ternary complex comprising G alpha i1-3, LGN and NuMA, which anchors dynein at the cell cortex, thus enabling pulling forces to be exert ...

Microbial life in porous systems

David Scheidweiler

Microbial life in porous systems dominates the functioning of numerous ecosystems, ranging from stream sediments to soils. While these environments are characterized by structures that vary spatially over orders of magnitude, the traditional research focus ...

Integrative approach to analyze the proximal region of the Trichonympha agilis centriole

Veronika Nemcíková Villímová

The centrosome, the major microtubule organizing center in animal cells, is composed of two orthogonally arranged centrioles and surrounding pericentriolar material. Centrioles are evolutionary conserved organelles characterized by a nine-fold symmetry of ...
