Post-Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies. [PDF]
Cilia are microtubule‐based organelles that extend from the surface of most vertebrate cells, and they play important roles in diverse cellular processes during embryonic development and tissue homeostasis.

PATJ deficiency leads to cystic kidney disease and related ciliopathies. [PDF]
Summary: Cystic kidney disease and related ciliopathies are caused by pathogenic variants in genes that commonly result in ciliary dysfunction. For a substantial number of individuals affected by those cilia-related diseases, the causative gene remains ...

The human ciliopathy protein RSG1 links the CPLANE complex to transition zone architecture. [PDF]
Cilia are essential organelles, and variants in genes governing ciliary function result in ciliopathic diseases. The Ciliogenesis and PLANar polarity Effectors (CPLANE) protein complex is essential for ciliogenesis, and all but one subunit of the CPLANE ...

HSD17B4 deficiency causes dysregulation of primary cilia and is alleviated by acetyl-CoA. [PDF]
Primary cilia are dynamic sensory organelles orchestrating key signaling pathways, and disruption of primary ciliogenesis is implicated in a spectrum of genetic disorders. The peroxisomal bifunctional enzyme HSD17B4 is pivotal for peroxisomal β-oxidation

Ciliopathy-Associated Protein Kinase ICK Requires Its Non-Catalytic Carboxyl-Terminal Domain for Regulation of Ciliogenesis [PDF]
Loss-of-function mutations in the human ICK (intestinal cell kinase) gene cause dysfunctional primary cilia and perinatal lethality which are associated with human ciliopathies.
