Centrioles are cylindrical organelles that comprise the microtubule organising centres in eukaryotic cells. As such they play important roles for diverse cellular functions including locomotion, signalling and division. As basal bodies centrioles anchor flagella and cilia to the cell membrane, while as centrosomes they are involved in coordinating the spindle apparatus during chromosome segregation.[Bornens 2012].Centriole numbers are strictly controlled with their duplication being a highly regulated and conserved process.[Azimzadeh and Marshall 2010] Deeper insight into the molecular mechanisms at play in the centriole duplication process would have implications on our understanding of fundamental cell processes and a number of disease including cancer, microcephaly and even protozoan infections like malaria.[Chavali et al 2014, Marques et al. 2015].
