LRRK1-mediated NDEL1 phosphorylation promotes cilia disassembly via dynein-2-driven retrograde intraflagellar transport.

Primary cilia are antenna-like organelles that regulate growth and development via extracellular signals. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying cilia dynamics, particularly those regulating their disassembly, are not well understood. Here, we show that leucine-rich repeat kinase 1 (LRRK1) plays a role in regulating cilia disassembly.
