Citation | Journal: Nat Commun / Year: 2023 Title: Structural insight into the intraflagellar transport complex IFT-A and its assembly in the anterograde IFT train. Authors: Yuanyuan Ma / Jun He / Shaobai Li / Deqiang Yao / Chenhui Huang / Jian Wu / Ming Lei / Abstract: Intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains, the polymers composed of two multi-subunit complexes, IFT-A and IFT-B, carry out bidirectional intracellular transport in cilia, vital for cilia biogenesis and ...Intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains, the polymers composed of two multi-subunit complexes, IFT-A and IFT-B, carry out bidirectional intracellular transport in cilia, vital for cilia biogenesis and signaling. IFT-A plays crucial roles in the ciliary import of membrane proteins and the retrograde cargo trafficking. However, the molecular architecture of IFT-A and the assembly mechanism of the IFT-A into the IFT trains in vivo remains elusive. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopic structures of the IFT-A complex from protozoa Tetrahymena thermophila. We find that IFT-A complexes present two distinct, elongated and folded states. Remarkably, comparison with the in situ cryo-electron tomography structure of the anterograde IFT train unveils a series of adjustments of the flexible arms in apo IFT-A when incorporated into the anterograde train. Our results provide an atomic-resolution model for the IFT-A complex and valuable insights into the assembly mechanism of anterograde IFT trains. | |||||||||
