Calaxin establishes basal body orientation and coordinates movement of monocilia in sea urchin embryos

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Katsutoshi Mizuno from the Shimoda Marine Research Center, University of Tsukuba, Shimoda, Shizuoka, Japan Sorbonne have published the research work: Calaxin establishes basal body orientation and coordinates movement of monocilia in sea urchin embryos, in the Journal: Scientific Reports Scientific Reports of 21/04/2017
• what: The authors show that a calcium sensor protein associated with outer arm dynein is a critical regulator for the movements of monocilia. This approach showed that in calaxin morphants, outer arm dynein was detectable along each cilium axoneme (Fig 2F,G). The direction of cilium movement was determined . . .
