Ciliopathy associations

  • Ataxia-Telangiectasia-like Disorder

Subcellular localization

centrosome, cilia associated gene, nucleus

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Transcription regulation

Function

Mutations in the PCNA gene cause Ataxia-telangiectasia-like Disorder (PMID: 24911150).

Model organism evidence

Mus musculus (2 references)

Primary cilia morphology (immunofluorescence), Shh signaling components (Smo, Gli3 via qPCR/Western blot), and proliferation markers (CCK-8 assay, Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen [PCNA], Cyclin D1) were analyzed.

This gene expresses a component of the axonemal dynein complex that functions in cilia or flagella.
