TMEM218 dysfunction causes ciliopathies, including Joubert and Meckel syndromes
Summary: The Joubert-Meckel syndrome spectrum is a continuum of recessive ciliopathy conditions caused by primary cilium dysfunction. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based, antenna-like organelle that projects from the surface of most human cell ...

Background The cilia are microtubule-based organelles that protrude from the cell surface. Abnormalities in cilia result in various ciliopathies, including polycystic kidney disease (PKD), Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS), and oral-facial-digital syndrome ...

Background: Recessive mutation of the X-linked gene, PIH1 domain-containing protein 3 (PIH1D3), causes familial ciliopathy. PIH1D3 deficiency is associated with the defects of dynein arms in cilia, but how PIH1D3 specifically affects the structure and ...

Background. Joubert syndrome (JS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy with an estimated prevalence of 1 in 100,000. JS is characterized by hyperpnoea, hypotonia, ataxia, developmental delay and various neuropathological abnormalities in the brain ...

CiliaMiner: an integrated database for Ciliopathy Genes and Ciliopathies
AbstractCilia are found in eukaryotic species ranging from single-celled organisms, such asChlamydomonas reinhardtii, to humans, but not in plants. The ability to respond to repellents and/or attractants, regulate cell proliferation and differentiation, and provide cellular mobility are just a few examples of how crucial cilia are to cells and ...

CPLANE Complex and Ciliopathies
Primary cilia are non-motile organelles associated with the cell cycle, which can be found in most vertebrate cell types. Cilia formation occurs through a process called ciliogenesis, which involves several mechanisms including planar cell polarity (PCP) and the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway.

Nephronophthisis-Associated Ciliopathies [PDF]
Nephronophthisis (NPHP), an autosomal recessive cystic kidney disease, represents the most frequent genetic cause of end-stage kidney disease in the first three decades of life. Contrary to polycystic kidney disease, NPHP shows normal or diminished kidney size, cysts are concentrated at the corticomedullary junction, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis is ...

Ciliopathies are a group of developmental disorders that manifest with multi-organ anomalies. Mutations in TMEM67 (MKS3) cause a range of human ciliopathies, including Meckel-Gruber and Joubert syndromes.

ARL3 mutations cause Joubert syndrome by disrupting ciliary protein composition [PDF]
Joubert syndrome (JBTS) is a genetically heterogeneous autosomal recessive neurodevelopmental ciliopathy. We investigated further the underlying genetic etiology of Joubert syndrome by studying two unrelated families in whom JBTS was not associated ...
