Centrosome aberrations in hematological malignancies
1 May 2005
Abstract excerpt
As the primary microtubule organizing center of most eukaryotic cells, centrosomes play a fundamental role in proper formation of the mitotic spindle and subsequent chromosome separation. Normally, the single centrosome of a G1 cell duplicates precisely once prior to mitosis in a process that is intimately linked to the cell division cycle via cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) 2 activity that couples centrosome...
