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 ...

Missense variants in TMEM17 disrupt its localization and function at the ciliary transition zone, leading to a wide range of ciliopathy phenotypes, from OFD6 and Joubert syndromes to Meckel syndrome. ABSTRACT Ciliopathies are rare genetic disorders characterized by significant genetic and phenotypic variability.

HOXB4 Promotes Bladder Cancer Progression in Part Through Transcriptional Activation of Smoothened
HOXB4 is overexpressed in bladder cancer and associated with poor prognosis. By transcriptionally activating Smoothened (SMO), HOXB4 amplifies SMO–GLI signaling to promote tumor growth and metastatic behavior. This graphical abstract highlights the HOXB4–SMO axis as a key driver of bladder cancer progression and a potential target for future ...
