Insights into Primary Cilia Structure by Laksh Nrusimhan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) A recent study used cryo-electron microscopy to reveal the three-dimensional structure of primary cilia with unprecedented clarity. 2) The study found that primary cilia have a more complex structure than the simplified "9+0" model of nine peripheral microtubule singlets. Specifically, several microtubules migrate inward in the distal region, becoming loosely connected singlets. 3) This challenges the view of primary cilia as simplified versions of motile cilia, and suggests their cytoskeleton and trans
