Cilia effects upon perturbation of LIMA1

Ciliogenesis screen results (2 screens)

  • Wheway et al. 2015 (siRNA) [siRNA]: No effect PMID:26167766
  • Breslow et al. 2018 (CRISPR) [CRISPR]: No Significant Effect PMID:29459680

Phenotypes

Mouse phenotype:
decreased thigmotaxis, preweaning lethality, incomplete penetrance

Subcellular localization

basal body

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Actin & cytoskeleton regulation

Function

Also known as EPLIN. Modulates actin stability to restrict primary cilia formation. Knockdown increases the levels of MyosinVa at the centrosome and primary cilia formation (32496561)
