PACRG, a protein linked to ciliary motility, mediates cellular signaling

Cilia are cellular projections that can be motile to generate fluid flow or nonmotile to enable signaling. Both forms are based on shared components, and proteins involved in ciliary motility, like PACRG, may also function in ciliary signaling. Caenorhabditis elegans PACRG acts in a subset of nonmotile cilia to influence a learning behavior and promote longevity.
