Abstract
Centriole biogenesis begins with self-assembly of SAS-6 proteins into 9-fold symmetrical ring polymers, which then stack into a cartwheel that scaffolds organelle formation. Here, the authors develop monobodies against Chlamydomonas reinhardtii SAS-6 and use X-ray crystallography, atomic force microscopy and cryo-electron microscopy to reveal insights into ring assembly and stacking.
