Flagellum-driven cargoes: Influence of cargo size and the flagellum-cargo attachment geometry
PLOS ONE, 2023 The beating of cilia and flagella, which relies on an efficient conversion of energy from ATP-hydrolysis into mechanical work, offers a promising way to propel synthetic cargoes. Recent experimental realizations of such micro-swimmers, in which micron-sized beads are propelled by isolated and demembranated flagella from the green algae Chlamydomonas ...

New Vistas in the Biology of the Flagellum—Leishmania Parasites
Pathogens, 2022 Like other kinetoplastid protozoa, the flagellum in Leishmania parasites plays central roles throughout the life cycle. Discoveries over the past decade have begun to elucidate flagellar functions at the molecular level in both the insect vector stage ...

The Leishmania major BBSome subunit BBS1 is essential for parasite virulence in the mammalian host [PDF]
, 2013 Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a human genetic disorder with a spectrum of symptoms caused by primary cilium dysfunction. The disease is caused by mutations in one of at least 17 identified genes, of which seven encode subunits of the BBSome, a protein ...
