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 ...

A helical inner scaffold provides a structural basis for centriole cohesion

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel, Davide Gambarotto

The ninefold radial arrangement of microtubule triplets (MTTs) is the hallmark of the centriole, a conserved organelle crucial for the formation of centrosomes and cilia. Although strong cohesion between MTTs is critical to resist forces applied by ciliary ...

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 ...

Revealing chromatin organization in metaphase chromosomes

Beat Fierz

The local structural organization of chromatin in mitotic chromosomes is not well understood. A new cryo-electron tomography study from the Daban laboratory (Chicano et al, ) reveals that mitotic chromatin isolated from human cells can assume a plate-like ...

Mapping of real-time morphological changes in the neuronal cytoskeleton with label-free wide-field second-harmonic imaging: a case study of nocodazole

Sylvie Roke, Pascal Jourdain, Carlos Alberto Macias Romero, Marie Eve Pascale Didier, Claire Jacqueline Léa Teulon

We demonstrate the use of wide-field high-throughput second-harmonic (SH) microscopy for investigating cytoskeletal morphological changes on the single-cell level. The method allows for real-time, in vitro, label-free measurements of cytoskeletal changes t ...

Flagellar microtubule doublet assembly in vitro reveals a regulatory role of tubulin C-terminal tails

Davide Demurtas, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel

Microtubule doublets (MTDs), consisting of an incomplete B-microtubule at the surface of a complete A-microtubule, provide a structural scaffold mediating intraflagellar transport and ciliary beating. Despite the fundamental role of MTDs, the molecular mec ...

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 ...

Mitotic chromosome binding predicts transcription factor properties in interphase

Mahé Cécile Raccaud

Mammalian transcription factors (TFs) differ broadly in their nuclear mobility and sequence-specific/non-specific DNA binding affinity. How these properties affect the ability of TFs to occupy their specific binding sites in the genome and modify the epige ...

Self-organization of parS centromeres by the ParB CTP hydrolase

Paolo De Los Rios, Stefano Zamuner

ParABS systems facilitate chromosome segregation and plasmid partitioning in bacteria and archaea. ParB protein binds centromeric parS DNA sequences and spreads to flanking DNA. We show that ParB is an enzyme that hydrolyzes cytidine triphosphate (CTP) to ...

RADX: A novel single-stranded DNA-binding protein regulating telomere recombination

Anna-Sophia Briod

Telomeres are specialized nucleoprotein structures present at the ends of linear chromosome. The telomeric DNA part is comprised of 5-15 kilo base pairs of double stranded TTAGGG repeats and it contains at the 3' end a single-stranded G-rich overhang of 50 ...

A Modular Ligation Strategy for Asymmetric Bivalent Nucleosomes Trimethylated at K36 and K27

Beat Fierz, Nora Guidotti, Andreas Linus Bachmann, Carolin Christine Lechner

In nature, individual histones in the same nucleosome can carry identical (symmetric) or different (asymmetric) post-translational modification (PTM) patterns, increasing the combinatorial complexity. Embryonic stem cells exhibit bivalent nucleosomes, some ...

Functional analysis of the telomeric long non-coding RNA TERRA

Patricia Renck Nunes

Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures present in the end of linear chromosomes. In humans, a core complex of 6 proteins cap and protect the chromosome ends from being recognized as double-strand breaks and eliciting unwanted DNA damage and repair response ...
