Dilatory is a <i>Drosophila</i> protein related to AZI1 (CEP131) that is located at the ciliary base and required for cilium formation
13 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
A significant number of ciliary disease genes have been found to encode proteins that localise to the basal body. By contrast, a large number of basal-body-associated proteins remain to be characterised. Here, we report the identification of a new basal body protein that is required for ciliogenesis in Drosophila. Dilatory (DILA) is a predicted coiled-coil protein homologous to vertebrate AZI1 (also known as...
