The unexpected role of Drosophila OCRL during cytokinesis
Inositides are intrinsic components of cell membranes that regulate a wide variety of cellular functions. PtdIns(4,5)P(2,) one of the most abundant phosphoinositides, is restricted at the plasma membrane where it regulates numerous functions including cell division.

Primary cilia signaling mediates intraocular pressure sensation [PDF]
Lowe syndrome is a rare X-linked congenital disease that presents with congenital cataracts and glaucoma, as well as renal and cerebral dysfunction. OCRL, an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase, is mutated in Lowe syndrome.

X-linked Lowe syndrome is a multisystem disorder showing major abnormalities in the eyes, kidneys and central nervous system. OCRL gene, which encodes an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase, is associated with Lowe syndrome when mutated.

Deficiency in the endocytic adaptor proteins PHETA1/2 impairs renal and craniofacial development
A critical barrier in the treatment of endosomal and lysosomal diseases is the lack of understanding of the in vivo functions of the putative causative genes.

Lowe syndrome – Case report with a novel mutation in the oculocerebrorenal gene
The oculocerebrorenal (OCRL) syndrome, also known as Lowe syndrome (LS), is an X-linked recessive disorder that predominantly affects males and is characterized by growth and mental retardation, congenital cataract and renal Fanconi syndrome.

Prenatal diagnosis of Lowe syndrome in a male fetus with isolated bilateral cataract
Background: Lowe syndrome is a rare disease characterized by the association of congenital cataract, hypotonia, followed by global psychomotor delay and intellectual disability, as well as progressive renal dysfunction, and renal failure occurring at ...

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.

OCRL1 engages with the F-BAR protein pacsin 2 to promote biogenesis of membrane-trafficking intermediates [PDF]
Mutation of the inositol 5-phosphatase OCRL1 causes Lowe syndrome and Dent-2 disease. Loss of OCRL1 function perturbs several cellular processes, including membrane traffic, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly defined.

Inositol phosphatases are important regulators of cell signaling, polarity, and vesicular trafficking. Mutations in OCRL, an inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase, result in Oculocerebrorenal syndrome of Lowe, an X-linked recessive disorder that presents ...
