“…In C. elegans embryos, centriogenesis is triggered by a signal mediated by several key molecules, including ZYG-1 (O'Connell et al, 2001), which causes the targeting of SAS5 and SAS6 to a nascent centriole (Delattre et al, 2006;Pelletier et al, 2006). These molecules are required for formation and elongation of a central tube, a structural intermediate of the centriole, onto which nine sets of centriolar microtubules become organized in a SAS4-dependent manner (Pelletier et al, 2006).…”
