cilia

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Actin & cytoskeleton regulation
  • Signaling (Hedgehog, GPCRs, ion channels)
  • Cilia length regulation

Function

Required for ciliogenesis and control of ciliary length, through the lregulation of pericentrosomal location of the dynein-2 intermediate chain WDR34. Depletion results in cilia number and structure (fewer but longer cilia) (28546340, 24046448). Partial depletion of giantin or of WDR34 leads to an increase in cilia length consistent with the concept that giantin acts through dynein-2. Suppression of giantin … leads to inability of cells to form primary cilia. (24046448) Knockdown in zebrafish … cilia number was reduced and visible cilia were longer. (23391289)
