Arl13b influences cilia length in the zebrafish Kupffer’s vesicle [PDF]
Joubert Syndrome is a ciliopathy that can be caused by a mutation in Arl13b protein. This syndrome is characterized by problems in embryonic development, especially at the neurological level. Arl13b is a protein that belongs to the small GTPase family, but presents the double size of a normal GTPase, because it has a different C-terminus with a coiled ...

The Ciliary Protein Arl13b Functions Outside of the Primary Cilium in Shh-Mediated Axon Guidance
Summary: The small GTPase Arl13b is enriched in primary cilia and regulates Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling. During neural development, Shh controls patterning and proliferation through a canonical, transcription-dependent pathway that requires the ...

Tumor Treating Fields Suppression of Ciliogenesis Enhances Temozolomide Toxicity
Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) are low-intensity, alternating intermediate-frequency (200 kHz) electrical fields that extend survival of glioblastoma patients receiving maintenance temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy.

Small G-proteins of the ADP-ribosylation-factor-like (Arl) subfamily have been shown to be crucial to ciliogenesis and cilia maintenance. Active Arl3 is involved in targeting and releasing lipidated cargo proteins from their carriers PDE6δ and UNC119a/b ...

Arl13b and the exocyst interact synergistically in ciliogenesis
Arl13b belongs to the ADP-ribosylation factor family within the Ras superfamily of regulatory GTPases. Mutations in Arl13b cause Joubert syndrome, which is characterized by congenital cerebellar ataxia, hypotonia, oculomotor apraxia, and mental retardation.

A pathogenic variant of TULP3 causes renal and hepatic fibrocystic disease
Patient variants in Tubby Like Protein-3 (TULP3) have recently been associated with progressive fibrocystic disease in tissues and organs. TULP3 is a ciliary trafficking protein that links membrane-associated proteins to the intraflagellar transport ...

The Joubert Syndrome Gene arl13b is Critical for Early Cerebellar Development in Zebrafish [PDF]
AbstractJoubert syndrome is characterized by unique malformation of the cerebellar vermis. More than thirty Joubert syndrome genes have been identified, includingARL13B. However, its role in cerebellar development remains unexplored. We found that knockdown or knockout ofarl13bimpaired balance and locomotion in zebrafish larvae.

A transgenic zebrafish for in vivo visualization of cilia
Cilia are organelles for cellular signalling and motility. Mutations affecting ciliary function are also associated with cilia-related disorders (ciliopathies).

A case of Joubert syndrome caused by novel compound heterozygous variants in the gene
Joubert syndrome (JS) is a recessive disorder that is characterized by midbrain-hindbrain malformation and shows the “molar tooth sign” on magnetic resonance imaging.

Arl13b Regulates Breast Cancer Cell Migration and Invasion by Controlling Integrin-Mediated Signaling [PDF]
Breast cancer is the first cause of cancer-related mortality among women worldwide, according to the most recent estimates. This mortality is mainly caused by the tumors’ ability to form metastases. Cancer cell migration and invasion are essential for metastasis and rely on the interplay between actin cytoskeleton remodeling and cell adhesion ...
