  • Title: Studying Centriole Duplication and Elongation in Human Cells.
    Author: Peneda C, Lopes CAM, Bettencourt-Dias M.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2020; 2101():147-162. PubMed ID: 31879903.
    Abstract:
    Centrioles assemble centrosomes and cilia/flagella, which are microtubule-based structures with key roles in cell division, polarity, motility, and signaling. Centriole biogenesis is a tightly regulated process, and deregulation of centriole numbers and structure can have dramatic consequences for cellular function and integrity. However, their small size poses a challenge to study them. Here, we describe protocols that allow the identification and assessment of true centrioles and that provide straightforward strategies to study the role of new candidate proteins in centriole duplication and elongation.
