Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: What is the motor protein composition and function of human fallopian tube (FT) cilia? SUMMARY ANSWER: Although the motor protein composition and function of human FT cilia resemble that of respiratory cilia, females with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) are not necessarily infertile. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: FTs are lined with multiple motile cilia, which show a 9 + 2 ultrastructure by transmission...
