General description

A cell-permeable benzoyl dihydroquinazolinone derivative that acts as a reversible and specific blocker of AAA+ ATPase motor cytoplasmic dynein and disrupts spindle pole focusing, cold-stable microtubule formation, kinetochore-microtubule attachment, and melanosome aggregation in a dose-dependent manner (~10 to 40 µM). Shown to perturb protein trafficking within the primary cilia and cause a significant increase in intraflagellar transport protein 88 (IFT88) levels at the distal tip of primary cilia. Reported to disrupt primary cilium-dependent Gli regulation and block Hedgehog signaling.

Components of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) system that regulates the assembly of the primary cilium are co-opted by the non-ciliated T cell to orchestrate polarized endosome recycling and to sustain signaling during immune synapse formation. Here, we investigated the potential

Synucleinopathies are neurodegenerative disorders including Parkinson disease (PD), dementia with Lewy body (DLB), and multiple system atrophy (MSA) that involve deposits of the protein alpha-synuclein (α-syn) in the brain.

In the developing embryos, the cortical polarity regulator Par-3 is critical for establishing Notch signaling asymmetry between daughter cells during asymmetric cell division (ACD). How cortically localized Par-3 establishes asymmetric Notch activity in the nucleus is not understood. Here, using

Primary cilia are specialized cell-surface organelles that mediate sensory perception and, in contrast to motile cilia and flagella, are thought to lack motility function. Here, we show that primary cilia in human and mouse pancreatic islets exhibit movement that is

ARL13B is a regulatory GTPase highly enriched in cilia. Complete loss of Arl13b disrupts cilia architecture, protein trafficking and Sonic hedgehog signaling. To determine whether ARL13B is required within cilia, we knocked in a cilia-excluded variant of ARL13B (V358A) and
