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

Function

Regulation of Left-Right asymmetry through the Kupffer’s vesicle (KV) and mantains cilia length and structure in KV. Both knockdown and overexpression of gpr22 in the Kupffer’s vesicle result in abnormal cilia length and ultrastructure, leading to defects in left–right axis formation. (25335082)
