Anterior–posterior pattern formation in ciliates

E Cole, J Gaertig - Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
As single cells, ciliates build, duplicate, and even regenerate complex cortical patterns by
largely unknown mechanisms that precisely position organelles along two cell‐wide axes …

Fission yeast Pak1 phosphorylates anillin-like Mid1 for spatial control of cytokinesis

JO Magliozzi, J Sears, L Cressey, M Brady… - Journal of Cell …, 2020 - rupress.org
Protein kinases direct polarized growth by regulating the cytoskeleton in time and space and
could play similar roles in cell division. We found that the Cdc42-activated polarity kinase …

Septins and a formin have distinct functions in anaphase chiral cortical rotation in the Caenorhabditis elegans zygote

A Zaatri, JA Perry, AS Maddox - Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2021 - Am Soc Cell Biol
Many cells and tissues exhibit chirality that stems from the chirality of proteins and polymers.
In the Caenorhabditis elegans zygote, actomyosin contractility drives chiral rotation of the …

Roles of Cytokinetic Ring Proteins GCK-1 and CCM-3 in the C. elegans Zygote

A Doshi - 2019 - cdr.lib.unc.edu
Cancer often involves abnormalities at the cellular level, such as errors in cytokinesis, the
physical partitioning of two daughter cells by means of an actomyosin contractile ring. Novel …
