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

Centrosome amplification is sufficient to promote spontaneous tumorigenesis in mammals
Centrosome amplification is a common feature of human tumors, but whether this is a cause
or a consequence of cancer remains unclear. Here, we test the consequence of centrosome …
