Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a renal disorder caused by mutations in the PKD2 gene, which encodes polycystin-2/Pkd2, a transient receptor potential channel. The precise role of Pkd2 in cyst formation remains unclear. The fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has a putative transient receptor potential channel, Pkd2, which shares similarities with human Pkd2. In this study, truncation...
