Multiple roles of the auxiliary calcium channel α2δ subunits require proteolytic cleavage of the precursor protein into α2 and δ.

Rather than relying on intrinsic intracellular targeting information, the key phototransduction enzyme guanylate cyclase 1 is delivered to the photosensory cilium with the visual pigment rhodopsin.

The ciliary G-protein Arl13B – which is often mutated in Joubert syndrome – is the Guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the G-protein Arl3 and exclusively localizes to cilia.

During cilium-generated signaling, ciliary membrane protein trafficking is unidirectional and ciliary membrane protein composition is regulated through action in the cytoplasm of the retrograde intraflagelllar transport (IFT) motor and shedding of ciliary ectosomes.

An endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein regulates synaptic transmission, alcohol sensitivity, and gene expression by controlling the trafficking of a calcium-activated potassium channel.

Skeletal muscle performance sets the course of rapid speciation by defining the evolutionary trajectory of reproductive behavior.

In zebrafish larvae, it is the cell type that determines how the cell responds to a chemokine signal.

An intracellular ion channel may have a central role in the release of cytokines by macrophages.

Giardia, a multi-ciliated parasitic protist, maintains four different flagellar lengths by balancing flagellar length-independent IFT-mediated assembly with length-dependent kinesin-13 mediated disassembly.

A series of genetically-encoded fluorescent reporters that allow imaging of neuropeptide release in vivo, with sub-second temporal and nerve terminal-level spatial resolution are developed.
