Cytoskeletal polymers play key roles in cellular organization, morphology, and dynamics. Often individual polymers interact with each other or additional proteins to build complex machines, which were the focus of the “Higher Order Cytoskeletal Structures” Minisymposium. Many of the speakers in this session utilized improved visualization strategies and overcame technological challenges in a variety of model organisms to provide new insights into the organization and function of higher order cytoskeletal assemblies.Microtubule structures and organization The session opened with talks highlighting microtubule-based structures, including centrioles and basal bodies, microtubule-organizing centers (MTOCs), and cilia. Matthew R. Hannaford (Rusan laboratory, National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute) found a role for kinesin-1 and dynein in centriole motility along noncentrosomal microtubules in Drosophila cells. These movements require Pericentrin-like protein, which serves as an adapter that links centrioles directly to these motor proteins. The theme of noncentrosomal microtubules continued as Ariana D. Sanchez (J. Feldman laboratory, Stanford University) used TurboID, a genetically encoded proximity labeling approach, in Caenorhabditis elegans differentiated epithelial cells to identify key components of noncentrosomal MTOCs including VAB-10B/Spectraplakin and WDR-62/WDR62.
