Making #cilia. This study shows that the Cep131-Cep162 module near the #axoneme and the Cby-Fam92 module near the #membrane work together to regulate localization of the #ciliopathy protein Cep290 at the #BasalBody to initiate ciliogenesis #PLOSBiology https://plos.io/49GCHCU

Do all CNS #neurons have primary #cilia?

jekely, 10 months ago to Neuroscience

Here is my #introduction. I am a biologist interested in #neuroscience and the #evolution of cells and nervous systems. My research group studies #ciliated marine larvae from a whole-organism perspective, combining behaviour, #connectomics, #imaging, #CRISPR, #modelling and other approaches. We love marine #larvae, their #neurons, #cilia, and #neuropeptides.

Centriolar satellites facilitate the efficient trafficking of #proteins to and from #centrioles and are required for the early steps of #cilia formation. https://elifesciences.org/articles/79299?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=organic

#Introductions Hi Mastodon community! I am a MRC Investigator and group leader at the MRC Human Genetics Unit at the University of Edinburgh. Very glad to be here...

A certified '#cellbiology on an organismal scale' fanatic- we believe seeing is believing! We ❤️ hacking ways to 'see' biology happen in real time across scales in health and disease!

Imaging addict. Genome wrangler. Developmental biologist at heart.
