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:
abnormal behavior, decreased grip strength

Subcellular localization

basal body

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly

Function

Negative regulattion of cilium length through the inhibition of the mTORC1 pathway and suppressing the synthesis of ciliary tubulin. It is part of, or transported by the IFT machinery (25243405).

Model organism evidence

C. elegans (1 reference)

Disruption of cilia structure or function leads to a diverse collection of diseases termed ciliopathies.1-3 The highly conserved CCRK and RCK kinases (ICK/MOK/MAK) negatively regulate cilia length and structure in Chlamydomonas, C.
