    Pathogenic LRRK2 control of primary cilia and Hedgehog signaling in neurons and astrocytes of mouse brain

    Shahzad S Khan, Yuriko Sobu ... Suzanne R Pfeffer
    Striatal cholinergic interneurons and astrocytes lose cilia and show dysregulation of Hedgehog signaling in mice with a Parkinson's disease-associated, G2019S LRRK2 mutation or upon loss of PPM1H phosphatase specific for LRRK2-phosphorylated Rab GTPases.

    A WDR35-dependent coat protein complex transports ciliary membrane cargo vesicles to cilia

    Tooba Quidwai, Jiaolong Wang ... Pleasantine Mill
    Electron tomography and biochemical approaches demonstrate a direct role for WDR35, beyond integrity of the IFT-A holocomplex, in the formation and fusion of electron-dense-coated vesicles to the ciliary sheath and pocket for delivery of cargos necessary for axoneme elongation.

    Novel analytical tools reveal that local synchronization of cilia coincides with tissue-scale metachronal waves in zebrafish multiciliated epithelia

    Christa Ringers, Stephan Bialonski ... Nathalie Jurisch-Yaksi
    Novel frequency-based analysis and computation modeling of cilia carpets reveals that tissue-scale metachronal coordination of cilia can arise even in the absence of global synchronization.

    Dopamine receptors reveal an essential role of IFT-B, KIF17, and Rab23 in delivering specific receptors to primary cilia

    Alison Leaf, Mark Von Zastrow
    The mechanism of signaling receptor delivery to primary cilia involves a specific cellular role of a Rab protein that is critical for vertebrate development.

    Ion channels and calcium signaling in motile cilia

    Julia F Doerner, Markus Delling, David E Clapham
    Direct patch clamp of ependymal motile cilia reveals that voltage-gated calcium channels in the cell body dominate their electrical and calcium signaling properties.

    A high-resolution morphological and ultrastructural map of anterior sensory cilia and glia in Caenorhabditis elegans

    David B Doroquez, Cristina Berciu ... Daniela Nicastro
    The three-dimensional structures of 50 sensory cilia present in the head of the adult C. elegans hermaphrodite have been reconstructed to provide a foundation for investigations into the mechanisms by which the diversity of cilia structures is generated and how this structural diversity is related to specific sensory neuron functions.

    LUZP1, a novel regulator of primary cilia and the actin cytoskeleton, is a contributing factor in Townes-Brocks Syndrome

    Laura Bozal-Basterra, María Gonzalez-Santamarta ... Rosa Barrio
    LUZP1 is required for proper cilia and cytoskeleton formation.

    The final step of 40S ribosomal subunit maturation is controlled by a dual key lock

    Laura Plassart, Ramtin Shayan ... Celia Plisson-Chastang
    Cryo-EM and functional studies reveal how combined action of proteins RPS26/eS26 and RIO1 allows late precursors to the human small ribosomal particle to be matured into fully translation-competent 40S subunits.

    Nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling of splicing factor SRSF1 is required for development and cilia function

    Fiona Haward, Magdalena M Maslon ... Javier F Caceres
    A mouse model where the splicing factor SRSF1 was prevented from accumulating in the cytoplasm revealed reduced translation of thousands of mRNAs and postnatal phenotypes particularly affecting multiciliated cells.

    Peroxisomal dysfunctions cause lysosomal storage and axonal Kv1 channel redistribution in peripheral neuropathy

    Sandra Kleinecke, Sarah Richert ... Celia Michèle Kassmann
    Dysfunctions of myelin peroxisomes cause a lysosomal storage-like disorder associated with alterations in glial and axonal membranes, which is the likely cause of nerve impairment in peroxisomal disorders.
