Ccdc11 is a novel centriolar satellite protein essential for ciliogenesis and establishment of left-right asymmetry [PDF]
The establishment of left–right (L-R) asymmetry in vertebrates is dependent on the sensory and motile functions of cilia during embryogenesis. Mutations in CCDC11 disrupt L-R asymmetry and cause congenital heart disease in humans, yet the molecular and ...
