Carbendazim inhibits cancer cell proliferation by suppressing microtubule dynamics

M Yenjerla, C Cox, L Wilson, MA Jordan�- journal of pharmacology and�…, 2009 - ASPET
Carbendazim (methyl 2-benzimidazolecarbamate) is widely used as a systemic fungicide in
human food production and appears to act on fungal tubulin. However, it also inhibits�…

Analysis of dynamic instability of steady-state microtubules in vitro by video-enhanced differential interference contrast microscopy with an appendix by Emin Oroudjev

M Yenjerla, M Lopus, L Wilson�- Methods in cell biology, 2010 - Elsevier
Microtubules are major constituents of the cytoskeleton which display dynamic properties.
They exhibit dynamic instability which is defined as the stochastic switching between�…

Failure of cell cleavage induces senescence in tetraploid primary cells

A Panopoulos, C Pacios-Bras, J Choi…�- Molecular biology of�…, 2014 - Am Soc Cell Biol
Tetraploidy can arise from various mitotic or cleavage defects in mammalian cells, and
inheritance of multiple centrosomes induces aneuploidy when tetraploid cells continue to�…

The neuroprotective peptide NAP does not directly affect polymerization or dynamics of reconstituted neural microtubules

M Yenjerla, NE LaPointe, M Lopus…�- Journal of�…, 2010 - content.iospress.com
Abstract NAP (Asn-Ala-Pro-Val-Ser-Ile-Pro-Gln) is a neuroprotective peptide that shows
cognitive protection in patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment, a precursor to�…

A conserved cytoskeletal signaling cascade mediates neurotoxicity of FTDP-17 tau mutations in vivo

FH Bardai, L Wang, Y Mutreja, M Yenjerla…�- Journal of�…, 2018 - Soc Neuroscience
The microtubule binding protein tau is strongly implicated in multiple neurodegenerative
disorders, including frontotemporal dementia and parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17�…

TD-60 is required for interphase cell cycle progression

M Yenjerla, A Panopoulos, C Reynaud, R Fotedar…�- Cell Cycle, 2013 - Taylor & Francis
We previously identified TD-60 (RCC2) as a mitotic centromere-associated protein that is
necessary for proper completion of mitosis. We now report that TD-60 is an essential�…

Microtubule dynamics

M Lopus, M Yenjerla, L Wilson�- Wiley encyclopedia of�…, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
Microtubules are cylindrical, cytoskeletal protein polymers found in all eukaryotic cells. They
perform a plethora of functions associated with cellular structure, organization, and�…

FTDP‐17 mutants S320F and S352L have subtle differential effects on 4R tau isoform aggregation in vitro

M Yenjerla, CT Gamblin�- The FASEB Journal, 2017 - Wiley Online Library
Frontotemporal Dementia with Parkinsonism linked to chromosome‐17 (FTDP‐17) is a class
of inherited neurodegenerative diseases caused by mutations in the tau gene. Tau protein is�…

Carbendazim inhibits cell proliferation and arrests mitosis by binding to tubulin and suppressing microtubule dynamic instability

M Yenjerla, C Cox, M Jordan, L Wilson�- Cancer Research, 2008 - AACR
Abstract 1407 Carbendazim (CBZ) is a widely used systemic fungicide belonging to the
