The effect of Dnaaf5 gene dosage on primary ciliary dyskinesia phenotypes

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2023
DNAAF5 is a dynein motor assembly factor associated with the autosomal heterogenic recessive condition of motile cilia, primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The effects of allele heterozygosity on motile cilia function are unknown.

Dynein assembly factor with WD repeat domains 1 (DAW1) is required for the function of motile cilia in the planarian Schmidtea mediterranea

open access: yesDevelopment, Growth and Differentiation, 2020
Motile cilia propel directed cell movements and sweep fluids across the surface of tissues. Orthologs of Dynein Assembly Factor with WD Repeat Domains 1 (DAW1) support normal ciliary beating by enhancing delivery of dynein complexes to axonemal ...

RPGR Isoforms in Photoreceptor Connecting Cilia and the Transitional Zone of Motile Cilia

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2003
The retinitis pigmentosa guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) regulator (RPGR) is essential for photoreceptor survival. There is as yet no consensus concerning the subcellular localization of RPGR. This study was undertaken as a comprehensive effort to resolve current controversies.RPGR in mice and other mammalian species was examined by ...

Real‐Time Evolutionary Landscape of the Bronchial Epithelium and Corresponding Dynamic Immune Cell Alterations in Lung Squamous Cell Carcinogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is often preceded by sequential premalignant lesions with an increasing probability of malignant progression. Using single‐cell RNA sequencing, the dynamic cellular evolution from normal lung to LUSC tissues is delineated; clonal structure of premalignant and malignant epithelium is reveled; the conversion of immune ...

Ciliogenesis and cerebrospinal fluid flow in the developing Xenopus brain are regulated by foxj1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Circulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through the ventricular system is driven by motile cilia on ependymal cells of the brain. Disturbed ciliary motility induces the formation of hydrocephalus, a pathological accumulation of CSF resulting

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.

The Geometry of Ciliary Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Cilia are motile biological appendages that are driven to bend by internal shear stresses between tubulin filaments. A continuum model of ciliary material is constructed that incorporates the essential ciliary constraints: (1) one-dimensional inextensibility of filaments, (2) three-dimensional incompressibility, and (3) shear strain only along ...

Phosphoproteins associated with cyclic nucleotide stimulation of ciliary motility in Paramecium [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Permeabilized, MgATP-reactivated cells of Paramecium (models) respond to cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP by increasing forward swimming speed. In association with the motile response, cyclic AMP and 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (8-Br-cyclic GMP) stimulated protein ...

A Structural Basis for How Motile Cilia Beat [PDF]

open access: yesBioScience, 2014
The motile cilium is a mechanical wonder, a cellular nanomachine that produces a high-speed beat based on a cycle of bends that move along an axoneme made of 9+2 microtubules. The molecular motors, dyneins, power the ciliary beat. The dyneins are compacted into inner and outer dynein arms, whose activity is highly regulated to produce microtubule ...
