Myc-binding Protein Orthologue Interacts with AKAP240 In the Central Pair Apparatus of the \u3cem\u3eChlamydomonas\u3c/em\u3e Flagella [PDF]
, 2016 Background Flagella and cilia are fine thread-like organelles protruding from cells that harbour them. The typical ‘9 + 2’ cilia confer motility on these cells.

Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Dynein-2 intermediate chains play crucial but distinct roles in primary cilia formation and function
eLife, 2018 The dynein-2 microtubule motor is the retrograde motor for intraflagellar transport. Mutations in dynein-2 components cause skeletal ciliopathies, notably Jeune syndrome. Dynein-2 contains a heterodimer of two non-identical intermediate chains, WDR34 and

Insights into centriole geometry revealed by cryotomography of doublet and triplet centrioles. [PDF]
, 2018 Centrioles are cylindrical assemblies comprised of 9 singlet, doublet, or triplet microtubules, essential for the formation of motile and sensory cilia.

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Kartagener's Syndrome (KS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder and a subset of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), is characterized by chronic sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and, in approximately 50% of cases, situs inversus. This condition arises from genetic mutations that impair motile cilia function, leading to defective mucociliary clearance ...

Motility of triton-demembranated sea urchin sperm flagella during digestion by trypsin [PDF]
, 1977 The survival curves for a population of reactivated spermatozoa exposed to digestion by trypsin indicate that a large number of trypsin-sensitive targets must be digested before the flagellum disintegrates.

Effects of antibodies against tubulin on the movement of reactivated sea urchin sperm flagella [PDF]
, 1980 Antibodies binding to sea urchin flagellar outer-doublet tubulin have been isolated from rabbit sera by tubulin-affinity chromatography employing electrophoretically purified tubulin as the immobilized substrate.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 2, Page 91-106, March 2026.Ontogenetic sequences in phyllopharyngean ciliates. ABSTRACT Heterochronic shifts in developmental sequences of unicellular organisms are rarely considered as mechanisms behind their morphological evolution. Among eukaryotic microbes, ciliates represent a key model group, exhibiting diverse morphologies and developmental trajectories.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 3, March 2026.This study describes a novel species of marine heterotrophic nanoflagellate, Hexatilemonas jangsaensis gen. et sp. n., within the uncultured APU‐30 clade, and highlights the global distribution pattern of this previously uncharacterised genus. This isolate is hypothesised to feed on bacteria attached to substrates in the water column using pseudopodia.
