Centrioles regulate centrosome size by controlling the rate of Cnn incorporation into the PCM.
BACKGROUND: centrosomes are major microtubule organizing centers in animal cells, and they comprise a pair of centrioles surrounded by an amorphous pericentriolar material (PCM). Centrosome size is tightly regulated during the cell cycle, and it has recently been shown that the two centrosomes in ce...
