Speed and diffusion of kinesin-2 are competing limiting factors in flagellar length control model

The paper models how kinesin-2 motor speed and diffusion coefficient influence flagellar length in Chlamydomonas, showing two distinct regulatory regimes based on length and mutation effects.

Diffusion as a ruler: modeling kinesin diffusion as a length sensor for intraflagellar transport

The paper models kinesin diffusion as a mechanism for measuring flagellar length during intraflagellar transport, showing it can achieve stable length regulation without additional signaling.
