High impact information on IFT20

  • The intraflagellar transport protein IFT20 is associated with the Golgi complex and is required for cilia assembly [1].
  • In living cells, fluorescently tagged IFT20 is highly dynamic and moves between the Golgi complex and the cilium as well as along ciliary microtubules [1].
  • IFT20 links kinesin II with a mammalian intraflagellar transport complex that is conserved in motile flagella and sensory cilia [2].
