Mechanical Centrosome Fracturing during Cell Navigation
2024-10-01
Abstract excerpt
The centrosome is the primary microtubule orchestrator in most eukaryotic cells, nucleating and anchoring microtubules that grow radially and exert forces on cargos. At the same time, mechanical stresses from the microenvironment and cellular shape changes compress and bend microtubules. Yet, centrosomes are membrane-less organelles, raising the question of how centrosomes withstand mechanical forces. Here we disc...
