... understanding of IFT and ciliary assembly, here, we performed an absolute quantification of IFT machinery in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cilium. There are ∼756, ∼532, ∼276 and ∼350 molecules of IFT-B, IFT-A, IFT dynein and kinesin-2, respectively, per cilium. The amount of IFT-B is sufficient to sustain rapid...

... for post-translational modifications that affect ciliary motility. The unicellular alga Chlamydomonas possesses only two α-tubulin and two β-tubulin genes, each pair encoding an identical protein. This simple gene organization might enable a complete replacement of the wild-type tubulin with its mutated...

...Cecile Fort; Peter Collingridge; Colin Brownlee; Glen Wheeler ABSTRACT The movement of ciliary membrane proteins is directed by transient interactions with intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains. The green alga Chlamydomonas has adapted this process for gliding motility, using retrograde IFT motors...

.... Here, we show that the six-transmembrane K + channel KCN11 in Chlamydomonas is exclusively localized to contractile vacuole. Ectopic expression of KCN11 in HEK293T cells results in voltage-gated K + channel activity. Disruption of the gene or mutation of key residues for K + permeability of the channel...

...-homology domain within the IFT81 N-terminus and the highly basic N-terminus of IFT74 form a module for IFT of tubulin. By using Chlamydomonas mutants for IFT81 and IFT74, we tested this hypothesis in vivo . Modification of the predicted tubulin-binding residues in IFT81 did not significantly affect basic...

Previously, we have shown that Chlamydomonas kinesin-13 (CrKin13) is phosphorylated during flagellar regeneration, and required for proper flagellar assembly. In the present study, we show that CrKin13 regulates depolymerization of cytoplasmic...
