Centrosomes are essential organelles in cells that play a critical role in organizing microtubules, which are structural components that help maintain cell shape and facilitate cell division.

A recent Cell Reports paper by the Oxenius group (IMB) demonstrates a function of targeted centrosome inheritance during CD8 + T cell division for the generation of memory precursor cells.

For almost a century, our understanding of the tiny structure at the centre of the cell called the centrosome was limited to its ability to organize mitotic spindles and other microtubule arrays.

We have characterized in vertebrates the final member of the tubulin superfamily, zeta-tubulin. In multiciliated cells, zeta-tubulin is a component of the basal foot, a centriolar appendage that ...

Jan. 28, 2025 — A team of stem cell scientists have successfully used embryonic stem cell engineering to create a bi-paternal mouse -- a mouse with two male parents -- that lived until adulthood.

This discovery sheds light on how tissue-resident memory CD8 T cells adapt to their location in the body, ensuring a coordinated and effective immune response and how microenvironments and ...

It feels like the Splinter Cell remake has been on its way for a while now, which isn't helped by the fact it's been over three years since we heard anything official about the game. From what we ...
