Kitty Chui,Alpa Trivedi,C. Yan Cheng,Diana B. Cherbavaz,Paul Dazin,Ai Lam Thu Huynh,James B. Mitchell,Gabriel A. Rabinovich,Linda J. Noble-Haeusslein,Constance M. John +9 more
TL;DR: The results show that functional human Sertoli cells can be propagated in vitro from testicular cells isolated from adult testis and should have important applications in studying infertility, reproductive toxicology, testicular cancer, and spermatogenesis.

A kinesin-related protein, KRP(180), positions prometaphase spindle poles during early sea urchin embryonic cell division
Gregory C. Rogers,Kitty Chui,Edwin W. Lee,Karen P. Wedaman,David J. Sharp,Gina Holland,Robert L. Morris,Jonathan M. Scholey +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the intracellular roles of an Xklp2-related kinesin motor, KRP180, in positioning spindle poles during early sea urchin embryonic cell division using quantitative, real-time analysis reveals that K RP180 concentrates on microtubules in the central spindle, but is absent from centrosomes.
Roles of two homotetrameric kinesins in sea urchin embryonic cell division
Kitty Chui,Gregory C. Rogers,Anna M. Kashina,Karen P. Wedaman,David J. Sharp,Duy T. Nguyen,Fred H. Wilt,Jonathan M. Scholey +7 more
TL;DR: Two sea urchin embryonic kinesin-related proteins are analyzed and it is striking that both of these proteins behave as homotetramers, but one behaves as a more compact molecule than the other, suggesting that these two presumptive motors could cross-link microtubules into bundles with different spacing.

Identification and Optimization of Thienopyridine Carboxamides as Inhibitors of HIV Regulatory Complexes.
Robert L. Nakamura,Mark A. Burlingame,Shumin Yang,Shumin Yang,David C. Crosby,Dale Talbot,Kitty Chui,Alan D. Frankel,Adam R. Renslo +8 more
TL;DR: A cell-based reporter assay is developed to monitor the assembly of viral complexes for inhibitor screening and results validate the screening strategy employed and reveal a promising lead series for the development of a new class of HIV therapeutics.
