Genes and molecular pathways underpinning ciliopathies

JF Reiter, MR Leroux - Nature reviews Molecular cell biology, 2017 - nature.com
Motile and non-motile (primary) cilia are nearly ubiquitous cellular organelles. The
dysfunction of cilia causes diseases known as ciliopathies. The number of reported …
