Today is the global Rare Disease Day 2026 and we together with colleagues from @imgprague.bsky.social want to raise awareness of research on rare diseases #ciliopathy #BardetBiedlSyndrome

Check our new paper: BBS1 mutations in #BardetBiedl Syndrome define two functional classes: severe variants disrupt #BBSome assembly or ciliary localization, while milder variants impair specifically TOM1L2-dependent export of ubiquitinated cargo from cilia. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Our lab has two new members Hanka and Eashayan #cilia #fun #Xmas #photoshooting @imgprague.bsky.social

I am happy my team obtained a collaborative grant with @cajaneklab.bsky.social from Czech Science Foundation to study #IFT, #kinesin KIF14 and #TubulinCode in #cilia and #BardetBiedlSyndrome @imgprague.bsky.social

Congratulations @mick-lab.bsky.social, such an amazing work 🤩https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-025-65405-8

An enzymatic cascade enables sensitive and specific proximity labeling proteomics in challenging biological systems - Nature Communications

Proximity labeling allows proteomic mapping of subcellular structures. Here, Sroka et al. develop in situ APEX activation (iAPEX) to overcome limitations of labeling specificity and H2O2 toxicity, app...

It was a lot of fun to write this review on cilia proteimics with Bernhard Schermer @cilib.social.cologne.ap.brid.gy and Ronald Ropeman, and we are excited to see it published in the @jcellsci.bsky.social special issue on Cilia and Flagella: from basic Biology to Disease.

📣 Here it is — our overview on ciliary proteomics! Great discussions and writing with @mick-lab.bsky.social and Ronald Roepman 🙏🙏 Hope we didn’t miss anything important - apologies if we did! #cilia #ciliopathies #proteomics @theracilproject.bsky.social @for5547.bsky.social tinyurl.com/yc8ztn5v

Loss of ciliary proteins IFT20 and IFT88 results in defective phagocytosis and metabolism in the RPE

A major proportion of retinal disease-causing genes are related to the primary cilium, a microtubule-based signalling organelle essential for multiple developmental pathways. Previous work has shown t...

I am excited to share our preprint on the use of machine learning to identify abnormal cilia function. I am proud of Nicholas Hadas, a talented PhD candidate, for his hard work in compiling the code and preparing this manuscript. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Machine Learning Analysis of Cilia-Driven Particle Transport Distinguishes Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Cilia from Normal Cilia

Rational. Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetic condition that results in dysmotile cilia and abnormal mucociliary clearance. Despite advances in understanding the pathogenesis of PCD, diagnos...

Get out your calendars! The motors are out of quarantine and we plan to assemble in person on 8th May 2026 at University of Warwick Campus for a fun day on motors and the filaments they walk along. Livestream is planned too. More details on registration, travel bursaries etc. will be revealed soon.

Our special issue on ‘Cilia and Flagella’ is now out! Huge thanks to all (authors + reviewers) who contributed, and to our wonderful Guest Editors (@cilialab.bsky.social + @lottepedersen.bsky.social) for pulling it together. Happy reading! #cilia #flagella journals.biologists.com/jcs/issue/13...

The next #DGZ Focus Workshop on #Cilia & #Centrosomes will take place November 25 (end of October is our DGZ meeting in HD). Join us for a great speaker line-up, and big thanks to David Mick @mick-lab.bsky.social & Dagmar Wachten @wachtenlab.bsky.social for organizing!

15 years in the making, we confirmed that mitochondria - the powerhouse of the cell - have an unusual localization in patients who experience psychosis (including schizophrenia and bipolar disorders). You’ll never guess what kind of patient cells we used to make this discovery… 🧵
