Extensive programmed centriole elimination unveiled in C. elegans embryos

Centrioles are critical for fundamental cellular processes, including signaling, motility, and division. The extent to which centrioles are present after cell cycle exit in a developing organism is not known. The stereotypical lineage of Caenorhabditis ele ...

Dissecting centriole fate in C. elegans development

Nils Kalbfuss

The presence of centrioles is critical for fundamental cell and developmental processes, including polarity, migration and division. Although centrioles are present in most proliferating cells, they are thought to vanish after cell cycle exit in some diffe ...

Variations of intracellular density during the cell cycle arise from tip-growth regulation in fission yeast

Emrah Bostan, Pascal Damian Odermatt

Intracellular density impacts the physical nature of the cytoplasm and can globally affect cellular processes, yet density regulation remains poorly understood. Here, using a new quantitative phase imaging method, we determined that dry-mass density in fis ...

Torsin ATPases influence chromatin interaction of the Torsin regulator LAP1

Beat Fierz, Rudolf Hovius

The inner nuclear membrane is functionalized by diverse transmembrane proteins that associate with nuclear lamins and/or chromatin. When cells enter mitosis, membrane-chromatin contacts must be broken to allow for proper chromosome segregation; yet how thi ...

Eukaryotic transcription factor binding kinetics : a single-molecule and functional study

Andrea Callegari

Transcription represents a key regulatory step in gene expression and transcription factors (TFs) are the key molecular players of this process. TFs inhibit or promote the assembly of the transcriptional machinery by binding DNA and several co-factors. Whe ...

Mechanisms of differential centriole inheritance in C. elegans

Lukas von Tobel

Centrosomes are the principal microtubule organizing center (MTOC) of animal cells and comprise a pair of centrioles surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM). Centriole number must be carefully regulated to ensure bipolar spindle formation and thus fait ...

Mechanisms of spindle positioning: cortical force generators in the limelight

Pierre Gönczy, Sachin Kotak

Correct positioning of the spindle governs placement of the cytokinesis furrow and thus plays a crucial role in the partitioning of fate determinants and the disposition of daughter cells in a tissue. Converging evidence indicates that spindle positioning ...

Analysis of centriole elimination during C. elegans oogenesis

Graham Knott, Pierre Gönczy, Petr Strnad, Lukas von Tobel, Tamara Mikeladze-Dvali

Centrosomes are the principal microtubule organizing centers (MTOCs) of animal cells and comprise a pair of centrioles surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM). Centriole number must be carefully regulated, notably to ensure bipolar spindle formation an ...

The SCF-FBXW5 E3-ubiquitin ligase is regulated by PLK4 and targets HsSAS-6 to control centrosome duplication

Pierre Gönczy, Debora Keller

Deregulated centrosome duplication can result in genetic instability and contribute to tumorigenesis(1,2). Here, we show that centrosome duplication is regulated by the activity of an E3-ubiquitin ligase that employs the F-box protein FBXW5 (ref. 3) as its ...

Parallel AFM imaging and force spectroscopy using two-dimensional probe arrays for applications in cell biology

Peter Vettiger, Mélanie Favre

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) investigations of living cells provide new information in both biology and medicine. However, slow cell dynamics and the need for statistically significant sample sizes mean that data collection can be an extremely lengthy pro ...

Functional characterization of the SAS-4-related protein CPAP in centrosome biology of human cells

The centrosome is an organelle that resides at the center of most animal cells and comprises two microtubule-based centriole cylinders surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM). The centrosome plays a fundamental role for nucleating and organizing a radi ...

Controlled Exchange of Chromosomal Arms Reveals Principles Driving Telomere Interactions in Yeast

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage

The 32 telomeres in the budding yeast genome cluster in three to seven perinuclear foci. Although individual telomeres and telomeric foci are in constant motion, preferential juxtaposition of some telomeres has been scored. To examine the principles that g ...
