Centrosome RNA: A Molecular Basis for Non-Equivalence of Triplets in Centrioles and Centrosomes?

Abstract

Marco Regolini

Works have been published about RNA in centrioles, basal bodies and centrosomes but the issue has never been faced and examined in depth. Indeed RNA may really represent the informational molecule that turns the sophisticated architecture of these organelles into highly directional organizing centers: RNA may be the Molecular Basis for Non- Equivalence of the centriolar circumferential polarity and the foundation of chirality of centrioles, the most probable organizers of bilateral symmetry in Metazoa.
