Quantitative Immunofluorescence Assay to Measure the Variation in Protein Levels at Centrosomes
Published on: December 20, 2014
Abstract:
Centrioles induced via a number of parthenogenetic agents regularly reveal the presence of one or more granules within their central cores. Though not a new discovery, these centriolar granules have carefully been re-evaluated here. Considering various criteria, it is proposed that these granules are intra-centriolar ribosomes. More specifically, they are more comparable to 70S ribosomes than to 80S cytoribosomes. The data suggest that within the lumen of centrioles, certain centriolar proteins are synthesized on ribosomes that may be uniquely centriolar.
