MLN4924: additional activities beyond neddylation inhibition
MLN4924, a small molecular inhibitor of NEDD8 (neuronal precursor cell-expressed developmentally downregulated protein 8) activating enzyme (NAE), blocks cullin neddylation to inactivate cullin-RING ligase. We found that MLN4924 has additional activities:

Fidgetin-like 1 is a ciliogenesis-inhibitory centrosome protein
Fidgetin-like 1 (FIGL-1) is a homolog of fidgetin, an AAA protein that was identified as the protein encoded by the gene mutated in fidget mice. Because the phenotypes of fidget mice are reminiscent of the phenotypes of ciliopathy diseases, and because ...

Assembly and mother centriole recruitment of IFT-B subcomplexes to form IFT-B holocomplex
For the biogenesis and maintenance of cilia, bidirectional protein trafficking within cilia is crucial, and is conducted by intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains containing the IFT-A and IFT-B complexes that are powered by dynein-2 and kinesin-II motors.

Ulk4 is essential for ciliogenesis and csf flow
Ciliopathies are an emerging class of devastating disorders with pleiotropic symptoms affecting both the central and peripheral systems and commonly associated with hydrocephalus. Even though ciliary components and three master transcriptional regulators

Characterization of the disease-causing mechanism of KIF3B mutations from ciliopathy patients
The heterodimeric kinesin-2 motor (KIF3A/KIF3B with accessory protein KAP3) drives intraflagellar transport, essential for ciliogenesis and ciliary function. Three point mutations in the KIF3B subunit have recently been linked to disease in humans (E250Q

Primary cilia and actin regulatory pathways in renal ciliopathies
Ciliopathies are a group of rare genetic disorders caused by defects to the structure or function of the primary cilium. They often affect multiple organs, leading to brain malformations, congenital heart defects, and anomalies of the retina or skeletal ...

Enhanced Ciliogenesis of Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells by Simulated Microgravity
Spaceflight induces a wide array of effects on the human body, notably including pathological changes mediated by alterations in gravity. Abnormalities in the formation of primary cilia (ciliogenesis) can lead to cell cycle arrest and decreased ...

Background/Objective: The primary cilium is the sensory organelle of a cell and a dynamic membrane protrusion during the cell cycle. It originates from the centriole at G0/G1 and undergoes disassembly to release centrioles for spindle formation before a ...
