Trisomy 21 increases microtubules and disrupts centriolar satellite localization
2021-10-26
Abstract excerpt
Trisomy 21, the cause of Down syndrome, causes a 0.5-fold protein increase of the chromosome 21-resident gene Pericentrin (PCNT) and reduces primary cilia formation and signaling. Here we investigate the mechanisms by which PCNT imbalances disrupt cilia. Using isogenic RPE-1 cells with increased chromosome 21 dosage, we find PCNT protein accumulates around the centrosome as a pericentrosomal cluster of enlarged cy...
