CEP162 deficiency causes human retinal degeneration and reveals a dual role in ciliogenesis and neurogenesis
2021-11-23
Abstract excerpt
Defects in primary or motile cilia result in a variety of human pathologies, and retinal degeneration is frequently associated with these so-called ciliopathies. We show that homozygosity for a truncating variant in CEP162, a centrosome and microtubule-associated protein required for transition zone (TZ) assembly during ciliogenesis and neuronal differentiation in the retina, causes late-onset retinitis pigmentosa...
