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

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 ...

Ciliary Defects in Inherited Retinal Diseases
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 ...

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 ...

Directional instability of microtubule transport in the presence of kinesin and dynein, two opposite polarity motor proteins. [PDF]
Kinesin and dynein are motor proteins that move in opposite directions along microtubules. In this study, we examine the consequences of having kinesin and dynein (ciliary outer arm or cytoplasmic) bound to glass surfaces interacting with the same ...

Situs Inversus Totalis: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Situs Inversus Totalis (SIT) is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the complete mirror‐image transposition of the thoracoabdominal viscera. Although typically it has a favorable prognosis, SIT can be associated with ciliopathy‐related disorders, most notably Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD).

Radial Spoke Proteins of \u3cem\u3eChlamydomonas\u3c/em\u3e Flagella [PDF]
The radial spoke is a ubiquitous component of `9+2\u27 cilia and flagella, and plays an essential role in the control of dynein arm activity by relaying signals from the central pair of microtubules to the arms. The Chlamydomonas reinhardtii radial spoke

ABSTRACT Kartagner syndrome is a rare congenital autosomal recessive disorder of ciliary movement, characterized by triad of chronic sinusitis, situs inversus and bronchiectasis leading to recurrent chest and sinuses infections. The primary objectives of this case report is to highlight the presentation of this rare disorder, its surgical challenge ...

Dynein structure and power stroke [PDF]
Dynein ATPases are microtubule motors that are critical to diverse processes such as vesicle transport and the beating of sperm tails; however, their mechanism of force generation is unknown.

The absence of both RIBC1 and RIBC2 induces decreased sperm motility and litter size in male mice
Abstract Background RIBC1 (RIB43A domain with coiled‐coils 1) and RIBC2 (RIB43A domain with coiled‐coils 2) are homolog proteins of RIB43a which is localized to microtubules in the cilia and flagella of unicellular organisms. Cryo‐electron microscopy and artificial intelligence studies showed that RIBC1 and RIBC2 are microtubule inner proteins (MIPs ...
