While AWA cilia are severely truncated in
dyf-5(XS) animals, loss of
dyf-18 in this overexpression background is sufficient to restore AWA cilia to wild-type-like morphologies (Figure 1C-D) (Maurya et al., 2019). "...the AWA cilia phenotypes of
dyf-18;
cdkl-1;
dyf-5(XS) animals were similar to those of
dyf-18;
dyf-5(XS) animals alone (Figure 1C-D). Similarly, while loss of
dyf-18 restored the truncated ASH cilia lengths to wild-type levels in
dyf-5(XS) animals, the cilia length phenotype of
dyf-18;
cdkl-1;
dyf-5(XS) animals were again similar to those of
dyf-18;
dyf-5(XS) animals (Figure 1A-B).
