Phosphorylation of multiple proteins involved in ciliogenesis by Tau Tubulin kinase 2

Study led by Ondrej Bernatik from a group of Lukas Cajanek, entitled: Phosphorylation of multiple proteins involved in ciliogenesis by Tau Tubulin kinase 2 has been accepted for publication in Mol Biol Cell. This work identifies several novel substrates and many new target sites of TTBK2 and hence provides valuable insight into the molecular control of cilia formation.
