Centriole growth is not limited by a finite pool of components, but is limited by the Cdk1/Cyclin-dependent phosphorylation of Ana2/STIL

T. L. Steinacker, S.-S. Wong, Z. A. Novak, S. Saurya, L. Gartenmann, E. J. H. van Houtum, J. R. Sayers, B. C. Lagerholm, J. W. Raff

The paper shows that centriole growth in Drosophila embryos is not limited by component availability but by Cdk1/Cyclin-dependent phosphorylation of Ana2/STIL, which regulates growth timing.

A positive feedback loop drives centrosome maturation in flies

I. Alvarez Rodrigo, P. T. Conduit, J. Baumbach, Z. A. Novak, M. G. Aydogan, A. Wainman, J. W. Raff

The paper identifies a positive feedback loop involving Spd-2, Polo, and Cnn that drives centrosome maturation in flies by enabling scaffold expansion.
