A subset of centrosomal proteins are arranged in a tubular conformation that is reproduced during centrosome duplication
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The centrosome plays a fundamental role in organizing the interphase cytoskeleton and the mitotic spindle, and its protein complexity is modulated to support these functions. The centrosome must also duplicate itself once during each cell cycle, thus ensuring the formation of a bipolar spindle and its continuity through successive cell divisions. In this study, we have used a battery of antibodies directed against centrosomal components to study the general organization of the centrosome during the cell cycle and during the centrosome duplication process. We demonstrate that a subset of centrosomal proteins are arranged together to form a tubular pattern within the centrosome. The tubular conformation defined by these proteins has a polarity and is closed at one end. The centriole complement of the centrosome is normally placed near this end. We show that the "wall" of the tube is enriched in proteins such as CDC2, ninein, and pericentrin as well as gamma-tubulin. In addition, a subset of gamma-tubulin is localized to the "lumen" of the tube. We also demonstrate, for the first time, that antibody staining can be used to detect centrosome duplication allowing the identification of duplication intermediates. We show that one product of centrosome duplication is the replication of the tubular structure found within the centrosome. The position of the centriole duplexes prior to and during centrosome duplication is documented and a model of the morphogenesis of the centrosome during the duplication process is proposed.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
