IFT trains overcome an NPHP module barrier at the transition zone
Cilia harbor diffusion barriers for soluble and membrane proteins within their proximal-most transition zone (TZ) region and employ an intraflagellar transport (IFT) system to form dynamic motile and signaling compartments. In this issue, De-Castro and colleagues (2021. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/...

Zusammenfassung: | Cilia harbor diffusion barriers for soluble and membrane proteins within their proximal-most transition zone (TZ) region and employ an intraflagellar transport (IFT) system to form dynamic motile and signaling compartments. In this issue, De-Castro and colleagues (2021. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202010178) uncover a long-suspected role for the TZ in gating IFT particles. |
