The IFT-A complex plays a major role in the assembly of anterograde intraflagellar transport trains

The paper investigates the role of IFT-A in anterograde intraflagellar transport in Trypanosoma brucei, finding that IFT140 is essential for train assembly.

A lipid droplet triacylglycerol lipase governs neutral lipids mobilization and differentiation of Trypanosoma brucei

This study identifies and characterizes TbPat, a triacylglycerol lipase in Trypanosoma brucei, showing its role in lipid mobilization and differentiation.

The Luminal Ring Protein C2CD3 Acts as a Radial In-to-Out Organizer of the Distal Centriole and Appendages

This study identifies C2CD3 as a radial organizer of the distal centriole and appendages, revealing its role in structuring the luminal ring and interacting with the DISCO complex.

A TALS-like associated RTTN mutation impedes neural rosette formation in human cortical organoids

This study identifies an RTTN mutation that impairs neural rosette formation in human cortical organoids, linking it to microcephaly-like defects.

Deficiency of U4atac snRNA secondarily results in ciliary defects

The paper identifies a mutation in RNU4ATAC causing ciliary defects in patients with TALS/RFMN/LWS and Joubert syndrome, linking minor splicing defects to ciliary dysfunction.

Expansion Microscopy provides new insights into the cytoskeleton of malaria parasites including the conservation of a conoid

This study uses expansion microscopy to reveal the cytoskeleton organization in malaria parasites, showing the conservation of a conoid structure previously thought to be absent.
