Motile cilia spin the Reissner fiber, a tensioned and anchored extracellular thread essential for body morphogenesis

Elizabeth A. Bearce, Samuel G. Bertrand, Samara E. Williams…·Daniel T. Grimes

The paper shows that motile cilia remodel Sspo into a tensioned Reissner fiber anchored to the floor plate, linking ciliary activity to body morphogenesis.
