This study identifies Tubb6's cell type-specific role in ciliogenesis of Xenopus epidermal multiciliated cells, showing its necessity for motile cilia formation.

The paper uses whole-cell proteomics to identify novel regulators of ciliogenesis in Xenopus multiciliated cells, revealing 832 upregulated proteins involved in ciliary structures and function.

This study shows that DDX3 promotes neural crest development by enhancing AKT activity, which is critical for craniofacial morphogenesis and linked to intellectual disability in humans.
