Tubulin Monoglutamylation is Sufficient to Rescue the Ciliary Motility Defects in a Chlamydomonas Polyglutamylation Deficient Mutant

Rinka Sasaki, Toshiyuki Oda, Tomohiro Kubo

The paper shows that short-chain tubulin glutamylation, regulated by CCP5, can restore ciliary motility in a long-chain polyglutamylation-deficient mutant.

Tubulin Acetylation Deficiency Promotes Axonemal Turnover and Increases Cytoplasmic Microtubules

Tomohiro Kubo, Natsumi Tajima-Shirasaki, Rinka Sasaki, Toshiyuki Oda, Masayuki Onishi

The paper shows that tubulin acetylation deficiency increases axonemal turnover and cytoplasmic microtubule dynamics without affecting flagellar length or cell growth.
