Once and only once: mechanisms of centriole duplication and their deregulation in disease

EA Nigg, AJ Holland - Nature reviews Molecular cell biology, 2018 - nature.com
Centrioles are conserved microtubule-based organelles that form the core of the centrosome
and act as templates for the formation of cilia and flagella. Centrioles have important roles in …

Centrosome function and assembly in animal cells

PT Conduit, A Wainman, JW Raff - Nature reviews Molecular cell …, 2015 - nature.com
It has become clear that the role of centrosomes extends well beyond that of important
microtubule organizers. There is increasing evidence that they also function as coordination …

Targeting mitosis in cancer: emerging strategies

C Dominguez-Brauer, KL Thu, JM Mason, H Blaser… - Molecular cell, 2015 - cell.com
