Abstract excerpt
Centriole biogenesis is viewed as a template-free physical transformation where a cartwheel scaffold emerges to guide centriole growth and subsequently disassembles; however, the mechanism underlying cartwheel dynamics remains obscure. Here, we identify the intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) ALMS1 as an external cofactor that causes a seed for cartwheel formation without itself incorporating into the seed...
