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 ...

Joubert syndrome: a case report of neonatal presentation and early diagnosis
Background: Joubert syndrome is a rare genetic condition with a prevalence of 1:80,000–1:100,000. In most cases, it shows an autosomal autosomal recessive hereditary pattern, although X-linked and autosomal dominant cases have been described.

Anaesthetic Management of Cataract Surgery in Patient with Joubert Syndrome
Joubert syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder of the cerebellum that occurs In 1 of 100000 live births. The syndrome is characterized by malformations of the cerebellum and brainstem, hypotonia, developmental delay, hypertonia or apnea attacks ...

PDE6δ-mediated sorting of INPP5E into the cilium is determined by cargo-carrier affinity [PDF]
The phosphodiesterase 6 delta subunit (PDE6δ) shuttles several farnesylated cargos between membranes. The cargo sorting mechanism between cilia and other compartments is not understood.

Shortened primary cilium length and dysregulated Sonic hedgehog signaling in Niemann-Pick C1 disease [PDF]
The Niemann-Pick type C1 (NPC1) disease is a neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder due to mutations in the NPC1 gene, encoding a transmembrane protein related to the Sonic hedgehog receptor, Patched, and involved in intracellular trafficking of ...

Atrioventricular canal defect and genetic syndromes: the unifying role of sonic hedgehog [PDF]
The atrioventricular canal defect (AVCD) is a congenital heart defect (CHD) frequently associated with extracardiac anomalies (75%). Previous observations from a personal series of patients with AVCD and "polydactyly syndromes" showed that the distinct ...

A CEP104-CSPP1 Complex Is Required for Formation of Primary Cilia Competent in Hedgehog Signaling
Summary: CEP104 is an evolutionarily conserved centrosomal and ciliary tip protein. CEP104 loss-of-function mutations are reported in patients with Joubert syndrome, but their function in the etiology of ciliopathies is poorly understood.

RPGR protein complex regulates proteasome activity and mediates store-operated calcium entry [PDF]
Ciliopathies are a group of genetically heterogeneous disorders, characterized by defects in cilia genesis or maintenance. Mutations in the RPGR gene and its interacting partners, RPGRIP1 and RPGRIP1L, cause ciliopathies, but the function of their ...
