Cell-specific alpha-tubulin TBA-6 and pan-ciliary IFT cargo RAB-28 generate a non-canonical transition zone

J. S. Akella, M. S. Silva, K. C. Q. Nguyen, D. H. Hall, M. M. Barr

The paper identifies cell-specific tubulin and IFT cargo proteins that generate a non-canonical transition zone in cilia through microtubule loss and reorganization.

A ciliary BBSome-ARL-6-PDE6D pathway trafficks RAB-28, a negative regulator of extracellular vesicle biogenesis

J. S. Akella, S. P. Carter, F. Rizvi, K. C. Q. Nguyen, S. Tsiropoulou, A. L. Moran, M. Silva, B. N. Kennedy, D. H. Hall, M. M. Barr, O. E. Blacque

This study identifies a ciliary pathway involving RAB28, BBSome, and PDE6D that regulates extracellular vesicle biogenesis and homeostasis in C. elegans sensory organs.

Cell type-specific structural plasticity of the ciliary transition zone in C. elegans

J. S. Akella, M. S. Silva, N. S. Morsci, K. C. Q. Nguyen, W. Rice, D. H. Hall, M. M. Barr

The paper shows that ciliary transition zones in C. elegans sensory neurons are structurally plastic, changing during development in a cell type-specific manner.
