	Figure 2. Expression of flag-tagged human Nde1 (f-hNde1) rescues abnormally long cilia in NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells. (a) Expression levels of f-hNde1 in NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells. Lysates of NIH-3T3WT cells stably expressing GFP (NIH-3T3WT Mock), NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells stably expressing GFP (NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 Mock) or NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells stably expressing f-hNde1 (NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 hNde1) were immunoblotted for Nde1 and α-tubulin as loading control (upper panel) or α-flag (lower panel). (b) Average ciliary length of NIH-3T3WT cells stably expressing GFP (NIH-3T3WT Mock; n=57), NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 stably expressing GFP (NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 Mock; n=78), or NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 stably expressing f-hNde1 (NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 hNde1; n=100) following serum starvation for 24h. (c) Cilia staining in mock-infected NIH-3T3WT (a) and NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells (b), or f-hNde1-infected NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells (c-l). Antibody against acetylated α-tubulin was used to visualize cilia (a-l), antibody against flag to detect f-hNde1 (c-g), and antibody to γ-tubulin to visualize the basal body (a, b, and h-l). Note that ciliary morphology and length changed according to the amount of f-hNde1 expressed (c-g). (Inset) Schematic representation of the dosage-dependent effect of f-hNde1 on ciliary length and morphology. Low levels of f-hNde1 converted abnormally long cilia back to cilia of normal size (compare a with c), while moderate or high levels of f-hNde1 resulted in bulged (d-f) or stumpy cilia (g), respectively. Scale bar, 2.5 μm. (d) RPE1-hTERT cells were transiently transfected with f-hNde1 and recovered for 48h followed by an additional 24h of serum starvation. Cells were double-stained with antibodies raised against the flag epitope (red) or acetylated α-tubulin (green). (e) Schematic representation of full length Nde1. Coiled-coil domains are shown as grey boxes (18–85 and 90–188). (f) Myc-tagged Nde1(L135P,F138P) (Nde1(L135P, F138P)-myc) was transiently transfected into NIH-3T3WT cells. Cells were serum starved for 24h and double-stained with antibodies raised against acetylated α-tubulin (green) or the myc epitope (red). Scale bar, 7 μm. (g) Summary of structure-function analysis.
	Figure 3. Nde1 suppresses ciliogenesis through LC8. (a) Overexpression of LC8 suppresses the effect of transfected Nde1 on ciliogenesis. NIH-3T3WT cells were transiently co-transfected with wild type Nde1-myc and flag tagged LC8 (f-LC8) at plasmid ratios of 9:1 and 1:9. Co-transfection of Nde1-myc and flag tagged bacterial alkaline phosphatase (f-BAP) in a plasmid ratio of 1:9 was used as control. Scale bar, 7 μm. (b) Expression levels of LC8 (upper panel) or α-tubulin (loading control, lower panel) in NIH-3T3WT cells transiently transfected with f-LC8 (f-LC8OE, lane 1), a control siRNA (Scm.control, lane 2), or a mouse LC8-specific siRNA (LC8KD, lane 3). (c) Depletion of LC8 suppresses ciliogenesis. NIH-3T3WT and NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells were transiently transfected with LC8-specific siRNA (LC8KD) and double-stained with antibodies against γ-tubulin (red) and acetylated α-tubulin (green), following 24h of serum starvation. Scale bar, 10 μm. (d) Overexpression of LC8 promotes cilium formation. NIH-3T3WT cells were transiently transfected with f-LC8 (f-LC8OE) and double stained with an antibody raised against the flag epitope (f-LC8, red) or acetylated α-tubulin (green). Scale bar, 10 μm. (e and f) Quantification of ciliary length (e) or ciliation (f) of untransfected NIH-3T3WT cells (n=35), transiently transfected with f-LC8 (f-LC8OE, n=76), or LC8-specific siRNA (hNde1KD, n=44). Ciliary length was measured from ciliated cells and percentage of ciliated cells was obtained from three independent experiments (n=3). “*”, P <0.05, Student’s t test. (g and h) Artificial tethering of LC8 at the basal body suppresses cilia formation. GFP-PACT (green, g) or GFP-PACT-LC8/BS (green, h) was transiently expressed in NIH-3T3WT and NIH-3T3Nde1-KD2 cells, followed by immunofluorescence staining with γ-tubulin (yellow) or acetylated α-tubulin (red). While both constructs were targeted specifically to the basal body, only GFP-PACT-LC8/BS caused the formation of bulged or stumpy cilia. Scale bar, 10 μm. (i) Schematic diagram summarizing the functional role of Nde1-LC8 interaction in ciliogenesis. Sequestration of LC8 at the basal body suppresses cilia formation, whereas increase of unbound LC8 at the basal body promotes cilia formation.
	Figure 4. Nde1 expression inversely correlates with ciliogenesis. (a and c) Centriolar expression of Nde1 decreases upon ciliation. RPE1-hTERT (a) or NIH-3T3WT (c) cells were serum-starved for the indicated time points. Nde1 (red) or acetylated α-tubulin (green) was visualized by indirect immunofluorescence. Arrows indicate Nde1 localization. Scale bar, 10 μm (a). Scale bar, 2.5 μm (c). (b and d) Quantification of fluorescence intensity ratio of Nde1/γ-tubulin (red/green) signals at the centrosome at 0 (n=128), 12 (n=140) or 24h (n=201) of serum starvation. Fluorescence intensity of coinciding green or red pixels within the boxed area (inset) was measured in a projection of z series collected in 0.5 μm intervals. The range of fluorescence intensity per pixel in box was from 0–255 (n is indicated on graph). (e) Cell cycle dependent regulation of Nde1 expression. Asynchronously proliferating NIH-3T3WT cells (lane 1, Asyn.) were serum starved for 12h (lane 2, 12h serum −), and 24h (lane 3, 24h serum −), followed by serum re-stimulation for 6h (lane 4, 6h serum +), and 12h (lane 5, 12h serum +). Phosphorylation levels of RB (pRBS807/811) and Cdc2 (pCdc2Y15) or levels of cyclin A, cyclin E, and Nde1 were determined by immunoblotting. α-tubulin was used as a loading control. (f) Nde1 levels decrease as cells exit mitosis. Cell cycle analysis of NIH-3T3WT cells synchronized in mitosis by nocodazole treatment (600ng/ml) for 12h (0h), followed by wash and release into complete media (10% calf serum) for 0.5, 1, 2, or 4h (inset). Lysates from cells arrested in mitosis (0h, lane 1), cells released from mitosis for 0.5 (lane 2), 1 (lane 3), 2 (lane 4), or 4 h (lane 5) were immunoblotted with antibodies against Nde1 (upper panel) or β-actin (lower panel). (g) Schematic diagram of Nde1 expression during the cell cycle and ciliogenesis.
