LRRC56 deletion causes primary ciliary dyskinesia in mice characterized by dynein arms defects
5 Feb 2025
Abstract excerpt
Leucine Rich Repeat Containing protein 56 (LRRC56), also known as DNAAF12, is a member of the LRRC superfamily, whose dysfunction is associated with mucociliary clearance and laterality defects in humans. Here, we generated LRRC56-knockout mice using the CRISPR/Cas9 nuclease system to specifically target exons 4-5 of the LRRC56 gene. We observed that homozygous LRRC56 gene deletion is definitely deleterious, as...
