<i>TUBB4B</i>variants specifically impact ciliary function, causing a ciliopathic spectrum
2022-10-21
Abstract excerpt
Cilia are small microtubule-based structures found on the surface of most mammalian cells, which have key sensory and sometimes motile functions. Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a type of ciliopathy caused by defects in motile cilia. The genetic basis of PCD is only partially understood. Studying a cohort of 11 human patients with PCD, we find that de novo mutations in TUBB4B , a beta tubulin isotype, cause th...
