In-phase and anti-phase flagellar synchronization by waveform compliance and basal coupling
New Journal of Physics, 2017 We present a theory of flagellar synchronization in the green alga Chlamydomonas , using full treatment of flagellar hydrodynamics and measured beat patterns.

Dissecting the Vesicular Trafficking Function of IFT Subunits
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 Intraflagellar transport (IFT) was initially identified as a transport machine with multiple protein subunits, and it is essential for the assembly, disassembly, and maintenance of cilium/flagellum, which serves as the nexus of extracellular-to ...

Uni-directional ciliary membrane protein trafficking by a cytoplasmic retrograde IFT motor and ciliary ectosome shedding [PDF]
, 2015 The role of the primary cilium in key signaling pathways depends on dynamic regulation of ciliary membrane protein composition, yet we know little about the motors or membrane events that regulate ciliary membrane protein trafficking in existing ...

Predicting the locations of force-generating dyneins in beating cilia and flagella
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Cilia and flagella are slender cylindrical organelles whose bending waves propel cells through fluids and drive fluids across epithelia. The bending waves are generated by dynein motor proteins, ATPases whose force-generating activity changes over time ...

The Cilium Secretes Bioactive Ectosomes [PDF]
Current Biology, 2013 The release of membrane vesicles from the surface of cells into their surrounding environment is now recognized as an important pathway for the delivery of proteins to extracellular sites of biological function. Membrane vesicles of this kind, termed exosomes and ectosomes, are the result of active processes and have been shown to carry a wide array of

Autophagy and the primary cilium in cell metabolism: What’s upstream?
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 The maintenance of cellular homeostasis in response to extracellular stimuli, i.e., nutrient and hormone signaling, hypoxia, or mechanical forces by autophagy, is vital for the health of various tissues.

Mutations in DYNC2LI1 disrupt cilia function and cause short rib polydactyly syndrome. [PDF]
, 2015 The short rib polydactyly syndromes (SRPSs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive, perinatal lethal skeletal disorders characterized primarily by short, horizontal ribs, short limbs and polydactyly.
