Check out my poster! :)

Without augmin spindles change their architecture to a hollow barrel - see the poster by Martina Manenica at #EESMTs! End-on view of the spindle, PRC1 in green and DNA in blue.

Excited to share our results that bridging fibers promote chromosome alignment by overlap length-dependent forces! Thanks to the reviewer who suggested to follow #EB3 after #optogenetic removal of #PRC1 from the #spindle! (1/4)

Having fun with the new Spirochrome SPY probes 😍 Valentina Stimac

Hello #spindle lovers! In our new #bioRxiv #preprint we find that #augmin is a major contributor to the nucleation of bridging #microtubules. We propose that these microtubules slide apart, which promotes poleward flux of kinetochore fibers and tension on #kinetochores.

What's new with bridging fibers? Check out our #CellBio2020 poster (P1437) which detected augmin as a key player in their nucleation, consequently revealing some new and very cool roles of bridging fibers in human spindles! Iva Tolić Valentina Stimac Juraj Simunic

Hello, #CellBio2020 attendees! Wondering what cool and exciting things 2020 brought to Iva Tolić? Check out what Isabella Koprivec and I found out about the congression of polar chromosomes by visiting the poster P131!

#SpindleCroatia2021 The abstract deadline is in 4 days! Join the "Mitotic spindle: From living and synthetic systems to theory” in Split or online! With Nenad Pavin Iva Tolić ROhiLab@Michigan Radhika Subramanian. phy.pmf.unizg.hr/~mitosis/

How does the #spindle align the #chromosomes? We found that bridging fibers lead the chromosomes towards the spindle middle by overlap length-dependent forces. Congrats Mihaela Jagrić, Patrik Risteski, Jelena Martincic and Ana Milas! eLife - the journal elifesciences.org/articles/61170 (1/13)

Beautiful live analysis (spinning-disk) of human fibroblast migration in a 3D collagen matrix using particle image velocimetry to measure matrix deformation. Cells deform the matrix at the front of migration. Not seen with HUVEC. Yamada & Doyle NIH bit.ly/3l42jRK

Happy Pi Day to everyone. #PiDay2021 #AcademicTwitter #ScienceTwitter OpenAcademics

Using light to remove the important cell-division protein PRC1 reveals how opposing forces keep chromosomes in line during division elifesciences.org/digests/61170/…

Excited to share our work on spindle elongation in human cells! Amazing work by K. Vukusic, Ivana Ponjavić, R. Buđa and Iva Tolić 😃

How do #chromosomes know where the #spindle center is? Patrik Risteski Mihaela Jagrić Nenad Pavin and I discuss intricacies of chromosome alignment and flux-driven centering in the #Cytoskeleton Special Issue of Current Biology! Movie by Isabella Koprivec Valentina Stimac. cell.com/current-biolog…

How do chromosomes get aligned on the mitotic spindle? By asymmetric poleward flux of kinetochore fibers! This story started with a physical model by Nenad Pavin & Domagoj Božan, motivating Patrik Risteski and Mihaela Jagrić to develop methodology to test it. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

😍🎉

Excited to share our latest work, just published in PNASNews and led by Patrik Risteski! Check out the highlights in the thread below, and the full text here: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn…
