Primary Cilium Disassembly in Mammalian Cells Occurs Predominantly by Whole-Cilium Shedding

M. Mirvis, K. A. Siemers, W. J. Nelson, T. Stearns

This study shows that mammalian primary cilia disassemble mainly by shedding the entire cilium, with some gradual resorption, and identifies katanin as a key regulator of this process.
