Small Interactor of PKD2 (SIP) promotes the assembly and ciliary entry of the Chlamydomonas PKD2-mastigoneme complexes
In Chlamydomonas, the channel PKD2 is primarily present in the distal region of cilia, where it is attached to the axoneme and mastigonemes, extracellular polymers of MST1. In a smaller, proximal ciliary region, PKD2 is more mobile and lacks mastigonemes. We show that the PKD2 regions are established early during ciliogenesis and increase proportionally in length as cilia elongate. In chimeric zygotes, tagged PKD2 rapidly entered the proximal region of PKD2-deficient cilia whereas assembly of...

Loss of the centrosomal protein ALMS1 alters lipid metabolism and the regulation of extracellular matrix-related processes
CONCLUSION: ALMS1 deficiency disrupts cross-signalling between the TGF-β pathway and other dependent pathways in hTERT-BJ-5ta cells. Furthermore, altered cross-signalling impacts the regulation of extracellular matrix-related processes and fatty acid metabolism, and leads to over-activation of the AKT pathway.

Clinical features and genetic analysis of a case series of skeletal ciliopathies in a prenatal setting
CONCLUSION: Our findings expand the mutation spectrum of DYNC2H1, IFT172 and WDR19 associated with skeletal ciliopathies, and provide useful information for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling on rare skeletal disorders.
