Figure 1: IFT-particle subcomplexes and IFT motors show distinct localization patterns along cilia. Here we investigate ... and cilium levels within living C. elegans, at unprecedented resolution ...

Here, we report a cilia-independent function of BBSome. To identify genes that regulate the C. elegans photoreceptor protein LITE-1 in ciliated ASH photosensory neurons, we performed a genetic ...

"You need something to receive signals, too." The team chose to study glia, dendrites, and cilia in the nematode C. elegans, a model organism cherished by basic researchers for its straightforward ...

Through a series of several more experiments, the team discovered that the BBSome plays a role in light sensation independent of its role in the cilia. In one scenario, they mutated C. elegans to ...

A staple in laboratories worldwide, C. elegans is “an experimental dream,” said one scientist. A staple in laboratories worldwide, C. elegans is “an experimental dream,” said one scientist.
