Indeed an exciting programme. Registration open for another two weeks. We are also able to accommodate a few late abstracts and bursary applications. If you would have usually gone to the UK microtubule meeting early May, come to Warwick instead. tinyurl.com/mechanochemi...

Our paper uncovering the role of the microtubule-associated protein CCDC66 in primary cilium stability and disassembly is now published in @plosbiology.org ! We discovered exciting new links between CCDC66, microtubules, actin, vesicular trafficking, and Wnt. 🔗 journals.plos.org/plosbiology/...
journals.plos.org
CCDC66 regulation of cytoskeleton and cilia stability is important for signaling and epithelial organization
The primary cilium dynamically assembles and disassembles while maintaining structural stability and tightly regulated length, but the mechanisms that control this remain unclear. This study shows tha...

Structure of the ciliary tip central pair reveals the unique role of the microtubule-seam binding protein SPEF1
Legal et al. resolve the ciliary tip central pair structure, revealing novel proteins that stabilize its unique form. They show how the protein SPEF1 binds the microtubule seam and stabilizes the tip ...
