Résumé
How do the two kinesin-9 members Kif6 and Kif9 function in mammalian cilia? Ou and colleagues discuss new work from Fang et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202312060) showing that Kif6 is an active motor while Kif9 serves as a stationary regulator, both of which are essential for cilia motility.
