Tubulin Polyglutamylation Regulates Axonemal Motility by Modulating Activities of Inner-Arm Dyneins

open access: yes, 2010
SummaryTubulin polyglutamylation is a modification that adds multiple glutamates to the γ-carboxyl group of a glutamate residue in the C-terminal tails of α- and β-tubulin [1, 2].

The Diagnosis of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia: Putting The European Respiratory/American Thoracic Guideline Into Practice

open access: yesPediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare inherited disease which is characterised by progressive lung disease, chronic rhinosinusitis, repeated middle ear infections, laterality defects, and reduced fertility. An early diagnosis is critical to reduce morbidity, however diagnosis is often delayed due to the heterogeneity in clinical ...

Dyneins across eukaryotes: a comparative genomic analysis.

open access: yes, 2007
Dyneins are large minus-end-directed microtubule motors. Each dynein contains at least one dynein heavy chain (DHC) and a variable number of intermediate chains (IC), light intermediate chains (LIC) and light chains (LC).

X-linked primary ciliary dyskinesia due to mutations in the cytoplasmic axonemal dynein assembly factor PIH1D3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
By moving essential body fluids and molecules, motile cilia and flagella govern respiratory mucociliary clearance, laterality determination and the transport of gametes and cerebrospinal fluid.

Sequence and expression analysis of potential spermatogenesis‐specific gene cognates in the Caribbean fruit fly, Anastrepha suspensa

open access: yesInsect Science, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 505-516, April 2026.
Abstract The sterile insect technique (SIT) is a highly effective biologically‐based method for the suppression of many insect pest populations. SIT efficacy could be improved by methods of male sterilization that avoid the use of irradiation that can result in diminished fitness and mating competitiveness.

Exploring the Neural Substrates of Number Sense: A Perspective on Genetics, Behaviour and Neural Circuity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 8, April 2026.
Numerical cognition arises from conserved mechanisms linking genes, neural circuits and behaviour. Using zebrafish as a tractable model, behavioural assays, whole‐brain imaging and genetic analyses can be integrated to identify neural and molecular bases of quantity discrimination. This framework provides a platform for studying numerical cognition and

Unraveling the Complexities of Kartagener's Syndrome: A Case of Bronchiectasis, Isolated Dextrocardia, and Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia in an Adult With Chronic Respiratory Symptoms

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Kartagener's Syndrome (KS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder and a subset of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), is characterized by chronic sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and, in approximately 50% of cases, situs inversus. This condition arises from genetic mutations that impair motile cilia function, leading to defective mucociliary clearance ...

Functional State of the Axonemal Dyneins during Flagellar Bend Propagation

open access: yes, 2002
When mouse spermatozoa swim in media of high viscosity, additional waves of bending are superimposed on the primary traveling wave. The additional (secondary) waves are relatively small in scale and high in frequency.

Ciliary Defects in Inherited Retinal Diseases

open access: yesAdvanced Genetics, Volume 7, Issue 1, March 2026.
The photoreceptor cilium is a specialized sensory organelle essential for vision. This review systematically summarizes the structural and functional defects of the cilium that lead to inherited retinal diseases (IRDs). It highlights key pathogenic genes, elucidates molecular mechanisms of degeneration, and evaluates emerging therapeutic strategies ...

Mapping the Non‐Canonical Splicing Variants: Decrypting the Hidden Genetic Architecture of Idiopathic Male Infertility

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, 13 February 2026.
This study highlights the significance of non‐canonical splicing variants in male infertility, a factor often overlooked during the analysis of high‐throughput sequencing data. Incorporating the non‐canonical splicing variants prioritization in the genetic analysis pipeline will increase the genetic diagnosis of patients with male infertility ...
