Ciliary protein trafficking mediated by IFT and BBSome complexes with the aid of kinesin-2 and dynein-2 motors
19 Dec 2017
Abstract excerpt
Cilia and flagella of eukaryotic cells are evolutionarily conserved organelles with a microtubule-based axoneme as a scaffold. To fulfil their functions in cellular motility, sensory reception and developmental signalling, cilia contain unique proteins, such as receptors and ion channels. The assembly and maintenance of cilia depend on protein trafficking mediated by intraflagellar transport (IFT) particles as...
