Centrosome stability is essential for spindle bipolarity. Schreiner et al. show that CDK-1 primes PCMD-1 for PLK-1 phosphorylation. Mutations in PLK-1 dock

The synaptic connectome of most animals bears little resemblance to functional brain maps, but it can still predict neuronal activity, according to two preprints that tackle the puzzle in C. elegans.

Two new maps of the roundworm nervous system detail how neurons communicate with short proteins called neuropeptides outside synapses.

Centrosomes are highly dynamic organelles, and maintaining their stability is crucial for spindle pole integrity and bipolar spindle formation. Centrosomes consist of a pair of centrioles surrounded b...
