LF4/MOK and a CDK-related kinase regulate the number and length of cilia in Tetrahymena.

LF4/MOK and a CDK-related kinase regulate the number and length of cilia in Tetrahymena.

The length of cilia is controlled by a poorly understood mechanism that involves members of the conserved RCK kinase group, and among them, the LF4/MOK kinases. The multiciliated protist model, Tetrahymena, carries two types of cilia (oral and locomotory) and the length of the locomotory cilia is de...
