Cytokinesis: Centralspindlin Moonlights as a Membrane Anchor
نویسنده
چکیده
The hardest working complex in animal cell division has a new gig. This extraordinary machine, the centralspindlin complex, works overtime, contributing to nearly every step in cytokinesis. It has now been shown to stabilize an association between the plasma membrane and the midbody microtubules prior to abscission.

Coordinated regulation of the ESCRT-III component CHMP4C by the chromosomal passenger complex and centralspindlin during cytokinesis
The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC)-composed of Aurora B kinase, Borealin, Survivin and INCENP-surveys the fidelity of genome segregation throughout cell division. The CPC has been proposed to prevent polyploidy by controlling the final separation (known as abscission) of the two daughter cells via regulation of the ESCRT-III CHMP4C component. The molecular details are, however, still uncle...
متن کاملAurora B and 14-3-3 Coordinately Regulate Clustering of Centralspindlin during Cytokinesis
Centralspindlin is essential for the formation of microtubule bundle structures and the equatorial recruitment of factors critical for cytokinesis. Stable accumulation of centralspindlin at the spindle midzone requires its multimerization into clusters and Aurora B kinase activity, which peaks at the central spindle during anaphase. Although Aurora B phosphorylates centralspindlin directly, how...
متن کاملNessun Dorma, a novel centralspindlin partner, is required for cytokinesis in Drosophila spermatocytes
Cytokinesis, the final step of cell division, usually ends with the abscission of the two daughter cells. In some tissues, however, daughter cells never completely separate and remain interconnected by intercellular bridges or ring canals. In this paper, we report the identification and analysis of a novel ring canal component, Nessun Dorma (Nesd), isolated as an evolutionarily conserved partne...
متن کاملCytokinesis: a logical GAP
Two complexes localize to the central spindle and regulate completion of cytokinesis: one, centralspindlin, contains a kinesin-like protein and a Rho-family GAP; the second contains Aurora B kinase. Aurora B kinase is known to regulate localization of centralspindlin and may regulate the activity of the RhoGAP component of centralspindlin.
متن کاملMechanisms regulating targeting of recycling endosomes to the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis.
Recently, recycling endosomes have emerged as a key components required for the successful completion of cytokinesis. Furthermore, FIP3 (family of Rab11-interacting protein 3), a Rab11 GTPase-binding protein, has been implicated in targeting the recycling endosomes to the midbody of dividing cells. Previously, we have shown that FIP3/Rab11-containing endosomes associate with centrosomes until a...
