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 ...

Stabilization of overlapping biofilaments by passive crosslinkers

Ignacio Pagonabarraga Mora

The formation, maintenance and reorganization of the cytoskeletal filament network is essential for a number of cellular processes. While the crucial role played by active forces generated by motor proteins has been studied extensively, only recently the i ...

Redox Signaling by Reactive Electrophiles and Oxidants

Yimon Aye, Jesse Poganik

The concept of cell signaling in the context of nonenzyme-assisted protein modifications by reactive electrophilic and oxidative species, broadly known as redox signaling, is a uniquely complex topic that has been approached from numerous different and mul ...

Identification of Chlamydomonas Central Core Centriolar Proteins Reveals a Role for Human WDR90 in Ciliogenesis

Pierre Gönczy, Romain Hamelin, Coralie Busso, Paul Guichard, Florence Armand, Virginie Hamel

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved macromolecular structures that are fundamental to form cilia, flagella, and centrosomes. Centrioles are 9-fold symmetrical microtubule-based cylindrical barrels comprising three regions that can be clearly distinguis ...

Investigating the Biological Mechanisms underlying the Initiation of Autoimmunity against Beta Cell Antigens in Type 1 Diabetes

Chiara Cianciaruso

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease characterized by circulating autoantibodies, lymphocytic infiltration of pancreatic islets of Langerhans, and cell-specific destruction of beta cells, leading to insulin deficiency and symptomatic hyperglycemi ...

Advances in pancreatic islet monolayer culture on glass surfaces enable super-resolution microscopy and insights into beta cell ciliogenesis and proliferation

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Steinunn Baekkeskov Hanahan, Olivier Burri, Chiara Cianciaruso, Edward Allen Phelps, Andreas Wiederkehr, Gabriele Galliverti

A robust and reproducible method for culturing monolayers of adherent and well-spread primary islet cells on glass coverslips is required for detailed imaging studies by super-resolution and livecell microscopy. Guided by an observation that dispersed isle ...

Computational support for a scaffolding mechanism of centriole assembly

Pierre Gönczy, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

Centrioles are essential for forming cilia, flagella and centrosomes. Successful centriole assembly requires proteins of the SAS-6 family, which can form oligomeric ring structures with ninefold symmetry in vitro. While important progress has been made in ...

Chemical Genetic Screen Identifies Natural Products that Modulate Centriole Number

Pierre Gönczy, Kai Johnsson, Michele Graciotti, Zhou Fang

Centrioles are microtubule-based organelles found in most eukaryotic cells and that are critical for the formation of cilia and flagella, as well as of centrosomes in animal cells. The number of centrioles must be strictly regulated in proliferating cells ...

Basal body structure in Trichonympha

Pierre Gönczy, Paul Guichard

Trichonympha is a symbiotic flagellate of many species of termites and of the wood-feeding cockroach. Remarkably, this unicellular organism harbors up to over ten thousand flagella on its surface, which serve to propel it through the viscous environment of ...
