    Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading

    I’m certain I’ve highlighted this preprint before because it’s so interesting and useful but this is a new revision so check out the new analysis in figure 5. Tagging actin can affect its ability to polymerize, interact with its regulators, localize to the correct places, and perform its normal functions. This study identify an internal site to insert an epitope tag and tests those key features. As authors note, this is of particular interest to tag isoforms so their behaviors and functions can be teased apart.

      Evaluation Summary:

      This paper is of broad interest to readers interested in motile cilia and cargo transport mediated by intraflagellar transport (IFT). It examines how radial spokes are trafficked into cilia by IFT, which represents a key process in the assembly of motile cilia. The authors demonstrate that an adaptor protein (ARMC2) is needed for association of radial spokes with the IFT machinery. They also find that the interaction of ARMC2/radial spokes with individual IFT trains (or particles) occurs in a stochastic manner rather than there being a specialized subset of trains specifically designated for a particular cargo. The results support the key claims in the paper.

  4. Long-range migration of centrioles to the apical surface of the olfactory epithelium

      Evaluation Summary:

      Analyzing the long-distance migration of centrioles to the dendrite tip of multicilated olfactory neurons in mice, Ching et al. use expansion microscopy to show that centrioles migrate as clusters, which mature as they reach the apical surface. The super-resolution data are impressive and the claims are generally supported by the data. Although the manuscript is largely descriptive, it is an important addition to the field, and will be of broad interest to cell biologists.
