abstract = {Microtubule nucleation was uncovered as a key principle of
spindle assembly. However, the mechanistic details about
microtubule nucleation and the organization of spindle
formation and symmetry are currently being revealed. Here we
describe the function of Coiled-coil domain containing 61
(Ccdc61), a so far uncharacterized centrosomal protein, in
spindle assembly and symmetry. Our data describe that Ccdc61
is required for spindle assembly and precise chromosome
alignments in mitosis. Microtubule tip-tracking experiments
in the absence of Ccdc61 reveal a clear loss of the
intrinsic symmetry of microtubule tracks within the spindle.
Furthermore, we show that Ccdc61 controls the centrosomal
localization of Cep170, a protein that was shown previously
to localize to centrosomes as well as spindle microtubules
and promotes microtubule organization and microtubule
assembly. Interestingly, selective disruption of Ccdc61
impairs the binding between Cep170 and TBK1, an interaction
that is required for microtubule stability. In summary, we
have discovered Ccdc61 as a centrosomal protein with an
important function in mitotic microtubule organization.
