Multiple interactions of the dynein-2 complex with the IFT-B complex are required for effective intraflagellar transport

Shunya Hiyamizu et al.

Summary: The dynein-2 complex is transported anterogradely within cilia to drive retrograde trafficking of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) machinery containing IFT-A and IFT-B complexes. There are multiple interactions between the dynein-2 and IFT-B subunits, including WDR60 and the DYNC2H1-DYNC2LI1 dimer from dynein-2, and IFT54 and IFT57 from IFT-B. These interactions play a crucial role in the connection between dynein-2 and IFT-B.

The molecular structure of IFT-A and IFT-B in anterograde intraflagellar transport trains

Samuel E. Lacey et al.

Summary: In this study, a molecular model of the anterograde train in cilia assembly was generated using cryo-electron tomography and AlphaFold2 protein structure predictions. The conformations of IFT-A and IFT-B were found to depend on lateral interactions with neighboring repeats, indicating the importance of polymerization for complex stability. Furthermore, IFT-B was shown to extend flexible tethers to maintain a connection with IFT-A under mechanical stresses. These findings provide insights into the fundamental processes of cilia assembly.

Disease-associated mutations in WDR34 lead to diverse impacts on the assembly and function of dynein-2

Caroline Shak et al.

Summary: The primary cilium is a sensory organelle that receives signals from the external environment and transports them into the cell. Mutations in proteins required for transport in the primary cilium result in ciliopathies, which lead to the malformation of organs and skeletal dysplasias. WDR34, a dynein-2 intermediate chain, is necessary for the maintenance of cilia function.

Combinations of deletion and missense variations of the dynein-2 DYNC2LI1 subunit found in skeletal ciliopathies cause ciliary defects

Hantian Qiu et al.

Summary: It has been discovered that pathogenic DYNC2LI1 deletion variants are compromised in their ability to interact with DYNC2H1 and WDR60, and cause ciliary defects when coexpressed with a missense variant that mimics the situation of compound heterozygous ciliopathy cells.

In situ architecture of the ciliary base reveals the stepwise assembly of intraflagellar transport trains

Hugo van den Hoek et al.

Summary: The cilium is an organelle similar to an antenna that plays various important roles in cellular functions. The base of the cilium has a selective barrier that controls the entry of large cargo proteins required for ciliary assembly and maintenance. This study used in situ cryo-electron tomography and ultrastructure expansion microscopy to reveal the native structures of the ciliary base and the assembly process of IFT trains.

IFT54 directly interacts with kinesin-II and IFT dynein to regulate anterograde intraflagellar transport

Xin Zhu et al.

Summary: This study revealed that the IFT-B protein IFT54 interacts with both kinesin-II and IFT dynein, regulating anterograde transport. Deletions of specific residues in IFT54 resulted in disrupted anterograde trafficking of IFT, with accumulations of IFT motors and complexes in different regions of cilia. This suggests a central role for IFT54 in binding IFT motors during anterograde transport.

Mareike A. Jordan et al.

Summary: The intraflagellar transport (IFT) system is a crucial molecular machine used by cells to assemble and maintain the cilium, shuttling structural components and signaling receptors within the organelle. IFT trains, composed of IFT-A and IFT-B adaptor protein complexes, are powered by kinesin-2 and IFT-dynein motors for bidirectional movement along microtubules.
