## Abstract Centrosomes nucleate microtubules that form the mitotic spindle and regulate the equal division of chromosomes during cell division. In cancer, centrosomes are often found amplified to greater than two per cell, and these tumor cells frequently have aneuploid genomes. In this review, we
The centrosome found in animal cells is a complex and dynamic organelle that functions as the major microtubule organizing center. Structural studies over the past several decades have defined the primary structural features of the centrosome but recent studies are now beginning to reveal structural
Discerning the in situ functions of the microtubuleassociated protein (MAP) tau is of interest both in terms of neuronal differentiation and homeostasis as well as in terms of neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. In the present study, exposure to excess phosphatidyl serine (PS)
