The intraflagellar transport (IFT) machinery required to build functional cilia consists of a multisubunit complex whose molecular composition, organization, and function are poorly understood. Here,...
The WD Repeat-containing Protein IFTA-1 Is Required for Retrograde Intraflagellar Transport
Blacque, Oliver E., Li, Chunmei, Inglis, Peter N., Esmail, Muneer A., Ou, Guangshuo, Mah, Allan K., ...
The assembly and maintenance of cilia require intraflagellar transport (IFT), a microtubule-dependent bidirectional motility of multisubunit protein complexes along ciliary axonemes. Defects in IFT...

Sensory cilium biogenesis within Caenorhabditis elegans neurons depends on the kinesin-2–dependent intraflagellar transport (IFT) of ciliary precursors associated with IFT particles to the axoneme...
Evans, James E., Snow, Joshua J., Gunnarson, Amy L., Ou, Guangshuo, Stahlberg, Henning, McDonald, Kent L., ...
The diversity of sensory cilia on Caenorhabditis elegans neurons allows the animal to detect a variety of sensory stimuli. Sensory cilia are assembled by intraflagellar transport (IFT) kinesins,...

The assembly and function of cilia on Caenorhabditis elegans neurons depends on the action of two kinesin-2 motors, heterotrimeric kinesin-II and homodimeric OSM-3–kinesin, which cooperate to move...
