Leucine-rich repeat in polycystin-1 suppresses cystogenesis in a zebrafish (Danio rerio) model of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
2024-01-29
Abstract excerpt
Mutations of PKD1 coding for polycystin-1 (PC1) account for most of the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The extracellular region of PC1 contains many evolutionarily conserved domains for ligand interactions. Among these is the leucine-rich repeats (LRR) in the far N-terminus of PC1. Using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as an in vivo model system, we explored the role of LRR in the function of PC1. Z...
