abstract：:Cilia (and flagella) are microtubule-based protrusions that are found in single or multiple copies on the surface of most eukaryotic cells. Defects in cilia formation and/or function have now been correlated with an expanding spectrum of human genetic diseases termed ciliopathies. Recent work indicates that cilia are ...
