Identifying RNA splicing factors using IFT genes in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Open Biology, 2018 Intraflagellar transport moves proteins in and out of flagella/cilia and it is essential for the assembly of these organelles. Using whole-genome sequencing, we identified splice site mutations in two IFT genes, IFT81 (fla9) and IFT121 (ift121-2), which ...

Illuminating the diversity of carotenoids in microalgal eyespots and phototaxis
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2023 Photosynthetic organisms biosynthesize various carotenoids, a group of light-absorbing isoprenoid pigments that have key functions in photosynthesis, photoprotection, and phototaxis.

WDR90 is a centriolar microtubule wall protein important for centriole architecture integrity
eLife, 2020 Centrioles are characterized by a nine-fold arrangement of microtubule triplets held together by an inner protein scaffold. These structurally robust organelles experience strenuous cellular processes such as cell division or ciliary beating while ...
