Phosphoproteins associated with cyclic nucleotide stimulation of ciliary motility in Paramecium [PDF]
Permeabilized, MgATP-reactivated cells of Paramecium (models) respond to cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP by increasing forward swimming speed. In association with the motile response, cyclic AMP and 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (8-Br-cyclic GMP) stimulated protein ...

The C. elegans tubulin family is composed of nine α-, six β-, and one γ-tubulin. Tubulins are highly conserved, functioning as α-β heterodimers that assemble into microtubules.

Mouse genome engineering uncovers 18 genes dispensable for male reproduction
Abstract Background Male infertility is an intricate multifactorial disease involving the interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Genetic anomalies account for more than 15% of all male infertility cases; however, diagnosing them exhibits enormous challenges due to variable symptomatic presentations and limited knowledge of gene functions.

Immunohistochemical detection of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in fetal and adult bovine epididymis: Release by the apocrine secretion mode? [PDF]
Originally defined as a lymphokine inhibiting the random migration of macrophages, the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is an important mediator of the host response to infection.

ABSTRACT Protists represent a significant portion of eukaryotic diversity with a wide range of ecological roles, lifestyles, and diverse morphological traits. Despite their widespread importance in ecological systems and their potential as model organisms, most protist lineages remain poorly characterized, in part due to their small size and the fact ...

Growth hormone (GH) activates GHR at the primary cilium and stimulates centrosomal JAK2. JAK2 centrosomal localization requires both its SH2 domain and kinase activity. Cells expressing JAK2 variants deficient in centrosomal targeting show impaired control of cilia length, reduced proliferation, and cell migration compared with parental and JAK2 WT ...

A systems-biology approach to understanding the ciliopathy disorders. [PDF]
'Ciliopathies' are an emerging class of genetic multisystemic human disorders that are caused by a multitude of largely unrelated genes that affect ciliary structure/function.

The precursor of the flagellar axoneme is already present in the primary spermatocytes of Drosophila melanogaster. During spermatogenesis each primary spermatocyte shows a centriole pair that moves to the cell membrane and organizes an axoneme-based ...

Localized Activation of Bending in Proximal, Medial and Distal Regions of Sea-Urchin Sperm Flagella [PDF]
Spermatozoa from the sea urchin, Colobocentrotus atratus, were partially demembranated by extraction with solutions containing Triton X-100 at a concentration which was insufficient to solubilize the membranes completely.

Cfap97d1 is important for flagellar axoneme maintenance and male mouse fertility.
The flagellum is essential for sperm motility and fertilization in vivo. The axoneme is the main component of the flagella, extending through its entire length.
