The last decade has witnessed an explosion in the identification of genes, mutations in which appear sufficient to cause clinical phenotypes in humans. This is especially true for disorders of ciliary dysfunction in which an excess of 50 causal loci are now known; this discovery was driven partly by an improved understanding of the protein composition of the cilium and the co-occurrence of clinical phenotypes...
