Life without heterotrimeric kinesins: trypanosomatids use a combination of homodimeric kinesin-2 motors to drive intraflagellar transport

Aline Araujo Alves, Augustine Cleetus, Cécile Fort, Kristína Záhonová, Daniel Abbühl, Christine Girard-Blanc, Thierry Blisnick, Serge Bonnefoy, Nadège Cayet, Ziyin Wang, Jack Daniel Sunter, Vyacheslav Yurchenko, Richard John Wheeler, Zeynep Ökten, Philippe Bastin

This study shows trypanosomatids use homodimeric kinesin-2 motors KIN2A and KIN2B for intraflagellar transport, with KIN2B being essential and KIN2A having a more limited role.

Investigating the axoneme CCDC40 protein reveals new insights in trypanosome morphogenesis and division

Christine Girard-Blanc, Thierry Blisnick, Vincent Louvel, Paul Guichard, Virginie Hamel, Philippe Bastin

This study investigates the role of CCDC40 in trypanosome flagellum structure and function, revealing that its depletion causes structural defects but not impaired cell division.
