TRIP6 functions in brain ciliogenesis [PDF]
AbstractTRIP6, a member of the ZYXIN-family of LIM domain proteins, is a focal adhesion component.Trip6deletion in the mouse, reported here, reveals a function in the brain: ependymal and choroid plexus epithelial cells are carrying, unexpectedly, fewer and shorter cilia, are poorly differentiated, and the mice develop hydrocephalus.

A meckelin–filamin A interaction mediates ciliogenesis [PDF]
MKS3, encoding the transmembrane receptor meckelin, is mutated in Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS), an autosomal-recessive ciliopathy. Meckelin localizes to the primary cilium, basal body and elsewhere within the cell. Here, we found that the cytoplasmic domain of meckelin directly interacts with the actin-binding protein filamin A, potentially at the ...

Roles for ELMOD2 and Rootletin in ciliogenesis [PDF]
The ARF GAP ELMOD2, Rootletin, and ARL2 all act in a common pathway to suppress spurious ciliation upstream of CP110 and to maintain centrosome cohesion.

Autophagy is a major intracellular degradation system and plays important roles in various physiological processes such as metabolic adaptation and intracellular homeostasis. It degrades intracellular components both randomly and selectively. Autophagic activity is tightly regulated primarily by nutrient availability, but also by other extracellular ...

Mechanobiology of Ciliogenesis [PDF]
Cilia are force-generating and -sensing organelles that serve as mechanical interfaces between the cell and the extracellular environment. Cilia are present in tissues that adaptively respond to mechanical loading and fluid flow, and defects in ciliary function can lead to diseases affecting these tissues.

Ciliogenesis: Polarity Proteins on the Move [PDF]
The formation and maintenance of cilia and flagella require a selective and directed transport along the axoneme, a characteristic central bundle of microtubules. Recent evidence suggests an interesting link between the generation of cilia and the protein complexes that establish apico-basal cell polarity.

Nonredundant roles of DIAPHs in primary ciliogenesis [PDF]
Primary cilia are hubs for several signaling pathways, and disruption in cilia function and formation leads to a range of diseases collectively known as ciliopathies. Both ciliogenesis and cilia maintenance depend on vesicle trafficking along a network of microtubules and actin filaments toward the basal body.

CEP162: A critical regulator of ciliary transition zone assembly and its implications in ciliopathies. [PDF]
Abstract CEP162, a 162‐kDa centrosome protein, is a crucial centrosomal adapter, mediating cell differentiation and polarization. CEP162 maintains mitosis by dynamically stabilizing microtubules. CEP162 promotes the transition zone (TZ) assembly in the basal body through interaction with CEP131, CEP290, and axoneme microtubules as well as the distal ...

The primary cilium, an antenna-like structure on the cell surface, acts as a mechanical and chemical sensory organelle. Primary cilia play critical roles in sensing the extracellular environment to coordinate various developmental and homeostatic ...

Arl13b and the exocyst interact synergistically in ciliogenesis [PDF]
Arl13b belongs to the ADP-ribosylation factor family within the Ras superfamily of regulatory GTPases. Mutations in Arl13b cause Joubert syndrome, which is characterized by congenital cerebellar ataxia, hypotonia, oculomotor apraxia, and mental retardation.
