A role for Shugoshin in human cilia?
We have recently described a novel role for the conserved centromeric/kinetochore protein and cohesin protector, Shugoshin, in cilia of C. elegans. Worms are unusual in that the sole Shugoshin protein ( SGO-1 ) is dispensable for chromosome segregation but required for cilia function in fully differentiated sensory neurons. Depletion of sgo-1 leads to an array […]
sut-2 loss of function mutants protect against tau-driven shortened lifespan and hyperactive pharyngeal pumping in a C. elegans model of tau toxicity.
Expression of human tau in C. elegans neurons causes progressive, age-associated loss of motor coordination, selective neurodegeneration, and shortened lifespan. Loss of function (LOF) mutations in the conserved gene sut-2 protects against progressive motor uncoordination and neurodegeneration in models of tauopathy. To determine whether sut-2 LOF also protects against shortened lifespan of tau transgenic C. […]
