Eukaryotic cilia and flagella, including primary cilia and sensory cilia, are highly conserved
organelles that project from the surfaces of many cells. The assembly and maintenance of …

C. elegans has a highly developed chemosensory system that enables it to detect a wide
variety of volatile (olfactory) and water-soluble (gustatory) cues associated with food …

Intraflagellar transport (IFT) is a rapid movement of multi-subunit protein particles along
flagellar microtubules and is required for assembly and maintenance of eukaryotic flagella …

We previously described a kinesin-dependent movement of particles in the flagella of
Chlamydomonas reinhardtii called intraflagellar transport (IFT)(Kozminski, KG, KA Johnson …

Caenorhabditis elegans senses environmental signals through ciliated sensory neurons
located primarily in sensory organs in the head and tail. Cilia function as sensory receptors …

Animals have evolved diverse behaviors that serve the purpose of finding food in the
environment. We investigated the food seeking strategy of the soil bacteria-eating nematode …

Cilia and flagella have attracted tremendous attention in recent years as research
demonstrated crucial roles for these organelles in coordinating a number of physiologically …

Approximately 10% of the photoreceptor outer segment (OS) is turned over each day,
requiring large amounts of lipid and protein to be moved from the inner segment to the OS …

The stereotyped mating behaviour of the Caenorhabditis elegans male is made up of
several substeps: response, backing, turning, vulva location, spicule insertion and sperm …

Dyneins are microtubule-based molecular motors involved in many different types of cell
movement. Most dynein heavy chains (DHCs) clearly group into cytoplasmic or axonemal …
