Cfap410a and Cby work together with tissue-specific requirements to build Drosophila ciliary transition zones

Amélie Billon, Jennifer Vieillard, Pranjali Priya, Minita Desai, Emilie Fontaine, Sarah De Freitas, Jean-André Lapart, Alain Mangé, Haneef Ahmad Dar, Véronique Morel, Joëlle Thomas, Swadhin Chandra Jana, Bénédicte Durand

This study identifies Cfap410a as a novel component of the Drosophila ciliary transition zone and shows its cooperative function with Cby in TZ assembly, with tissue-specific requirements.

ALMS1 contributes to centriole proximal architecture and stability

Sarah De Freitas, Maria Giovanna Riparbelli, Giuliano Callaini, Marine Hélène Laporte, Bénédicte Durand, Véronique Morel

This study shows ALMS1 is essential for centriole proximal architecture and stability, with loss of ALMS1 causing structural defects in RPE1 cells.

Estradiol promotes habituation learning via an unidentified target, bypassing the suppressive effects of established Estrogen Receptors

Andrew Hsiao, Isabelle Darvaux-Hubert, Dominique Hicks, Emilie Joux, Sarah De Freitas, Emeline Dracos, Jeanne Lizé, Julien Perrichet, Dominique Baas, Owen Randlett

The paper shows estradiol enhances habituation learning in zebrafish, but its effects bypass classical estrogen receptors, suggesting an unidentified target mediates this learning promotion.
