Transition fibres (TFs) and the transition zone (TZ) are basal ciliary structures thought to act as a gate to regulate protein transport. Here the authors show that the C. elegansorthologue of hydrolethalus protein 1, HYLS-1, disrupts both structures and compromises the trafficking of cargo through the ciliary gate.
