Control of nuclear envelope dynamics during acute ER stress by LINC complexes disassembly and selective, asymmetric autophagy of the outer nuclear membrane

Maurizio Molinari

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) extends to the outer (ONM) and the inner (INM) nuclear membrane forming the nuclear envelope (NE) that delimits the nucleoplasm containing the cell genome. Unfolded protein responses (UPRs) and reticulophagy responses increas ...

Microtubule-mediated GLUT4 trafficking is disrupted in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle

Martinus Adela Maria Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Martin Rainer Wohlwend

Microtubules serve as tracks for long-range intracellular trafficking of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), but the role of this process in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance is unclear. Here, we used fixed and live-cell imaging to study microtubule-based ...

Centriole elimination during Caenorhabditis elegans oogenesis initiates with loss of the central tube protein SAS-1

Pierre Gönczy, Coralie Busso, Mary-Claude Croisier-Coeytaux, Alexander Woglar, Marie Juliette Ségolène Pierron, Tamara Mikeladze-Dvali, Keshav Jha

In most metazoans, centrioles are lost during oogenesis, ensuring that the zygote is endowed with the correct number of two centrioles, which are paternally contributed. How centriole architecture is dismantled during oogenesis is not understood. Here, we ...

Centromere structure and function: lessons from Drosophila

Eftychia Kyriacou

The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster serves as a powerful model organism for advancing our understanding of biological processes, not just by studying its similarities with other organisms including ourselves but also by investigating its differences to u ...

KRAB zinc finger proteins link heterochromatin maintenance to replicative stress and inflammation in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

Filipe Amândio Brandão Sanches Vong Martins

Genomic instability enhances cancer progression by favoring clonal diversity, yet uncontrolled replicative stress can lead to mitotic catastrophe and inflammatory responses promoting immune rejection. KRAB-containing zinc finger proteins (KZFPs) are epigen ...

New roles of Bicc1 in cilia formation, cell adhesion, and in adult kidneys

Céline Gagnieux

Bicaudal-C1 (Bicc1), an RNA-Binding protein, is a ciliopathy-associated protein. In development, Bicc1 is necessary for left-right axis specification. Loss of Bicc1 in mice also associates with polycystic kidney development. In human, two hereditary polycy ...

CENP-A and CENP-B collaborate to create an open centromeric chromatin state

Beat Fierz, Harsh Nagpal, Wei Cai

Centromeres are epigenetically defined via the presence of the histone H3 variant CENP-A. Contacting CENP-A nucleosomes, the constitutive centromere associated network (CCAN) and the kinetochore assemble, connecting the centromere to spindle microtubules d ...

Structures of SAS-6 coiled coil hold implications for the polarity of the centriolar cartwheel

Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos

Centrioles are eukaryotic organelles that template the formation of cilia and flagella, as well as organize the microtubule network and the mitotic spindle in animal cells. Centrioles have proximal-distal polarity and a 9 fold radial symmetry imparted by a ...

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 ...

The phase separation-dependent FUS interactome reveals nuclear and cytoplasmic function of liquid-liquid phase separation

Helen Lindsay

Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins and RNAs has emerged as the driving force underlying the formation of membrane-less organelles. Such biomolecular condensates have various biological functions and have been linked to disease. The protein F ...

Tuning SAS-6 architecture with monobodies impairs distinct steps of centriole assembly

Pierre Gönczy, Georg Fantner, Oliver Hantschel, Santiago Harald Andany, Niccolo Banterle, Virginie Hamel, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez

Centrioles are evolutionarily conserved multi-protein organelles essential for forming cilia and centrosomes. Centriole biogenesis begins with self-assembly of SAS-6 proteins into 9-fold symmetrical ring polymers, which then stack into a cartwheel that sca ...

Centromeres are dismantled by foundational meiotic proteins Spo11 and Rec8

Eftychia Kyriacou

Meiotic processes are potentially dangerous to genome stability and could be disastrous if activated in proliferative cells. Here we show that two key meiosis-defining proteins, the topoisomerase Spo11 (which forms double-strand breaks) and the meiotic coh ...

Pulchelloid A, a sesquiterpene lactone from the Canadian prairie plant Gaillardia aristata inhibits mitosis in human cells

Pierre Gönczy, Georgios Hatzopoulos, Tatiana Favez

Background The Canadian prairie ecosystem presents a rich source of natural products from plants that are subjected to herbivory by grazing mammals. This type of ecological competition may contribute to the production of natural products of interest in cel ...

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 ...

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 ...
