The GTPase IFT27 is involved in both anterograde and retrograde intraflagellar transport

open access: yeseLife, 2014
The construction of cilia and flagella depends on intraflagellar transport (IFT), the bidirectional movement of two protein complexes (IFT-A and IFT-B) driven by specific kinesin and dynein motors.

The Drosophila orthologue of the primary ciliary dyskinesia-associated gene, DNAAF3, is required for axonemal dynein assembly

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Ciliary motility is powered by a suite of highly conserved axoneme-specific dynein motor complexes. In humans, the impairment of these motors through mutation results in the disease primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD).

Leishmania flagellum attachment zone is critical for flagellar pocket shape, development in the sand fly, and pathogenicity in the host

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019
Significance Leishmania alternates between an insect vector and human host; in these different environments, the parasite adopts different forms. There are important commonalities between these different forms, particularly the flagellar pocket (FP) and ...

Molecular basis of the morphogenesis of sperm head and tail in mice

open access: yesReproductive Medicine and Biology, 2022
Background The spermatozoon has a complex molecular apparatus necessary for fertilization in its head and flagellum. Recently, numerous genes that are needed to construct the molecular apparatus of spermatozoa have been identified through the analysis of

Untargeted Microbial Exometabolomics and Metabolomics Analysis of Helicobacter pylori J99 and jhp0106 Mutant

open access: yesMetabolites, 2021
Untargeted metabolomic profiling provides the opportunity to comprehensively explore metabolites of interest. Herein, we investigated the metabolic pathways associated with Jhp0106, a glycosyltransferase enzyme in Helicobacter pylori.

Rab23 is a flagellar protein in Trypanosoma brucei

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2011
Background Rab small GTPases are important mediators of membrane transport, and orthologues frequently retain similar locations and functions, even between highly divergent taxa.

The Unicellular, Parasitic Fungi, Sanchytriomycota, Possess a DNA Sequence Possibly Encoding a Long Tubulin Polymerization Promoting Protein (TPPP) but Not a Fungal-Type One

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
The unicellular, parasitic fungi of the phylum Sanchytriomycota (sanchytrids) were discovered a few years ago. These unusual chytrid-like fungi parasitize algae.

Kinesin-8B controls basal body function and flagellum formation and is key to malaria transmission

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2019
This comprehensive study describes the key role and real-time dynamics of Plasmodium kinesin-8B in microtubule-based basal body and axoneme assembly during flagellum (male gamete) formation and parasite transmission.

The Leishmania major BBSome subunit BBS1 is essential for parasite virulence in the mammalian host [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...
