Dilatory is a Drosophila protein related to AZI1 (CEP131) that is located at the ciliary base and required for cilium formation

Abstract: A significant number of ciliary disease genes have been found to encode proteins that localise to the basal body. By contrast, a large number of basal-body-associated proteins remain to be characterised. Here, we report the identification of a new basal body protein that is required for ciliogenesis in Drosophila. Dilatory (DILA) is a predicted coiled-coil protein homologous to vertebrate AZI1 (also known as CEP131). Mutations in dila specifically exhibit defects in ciliated cells (sensory neurons and sperm). … Show more

“…Proteins that, putatively, interacted with Ccdc13 with the greatest peptide coverage were PCM1, pericentrin, Cep290, Cep215, Cep131, Cep90 and Cep72 (Fig. 3A), which have all been previously shown to localise to centriolar satellites (Balczon et al, 1994;Dammermann and Merdes, 2002;Kim et al, 2008;Kim et al, 2012;Lee and Rhee, 2010;Lopes et al, 2011;Ma and Jarman, 2011;Stowe et al, 2012). Additionally, we confirmed that YFP-Ccdc13 colocalised with PCM1 and pericentrin (Fig.…”

“…As part of this program, ATO activates the expression of both fd3F and Rfx in order to generate the motile mechanosensory cilia that extend from these neurons (Cachero et al, 2011). Interestingly, ATO has also been shown to activate directly the expression of a ciliary component, Dilatory/CEP131, indicating that ATO can contribute to ciliogenesis independent of the RFX/FD3F cassette (Cachero et al, 2011;Ma and Jarman, 2011). Indeed, this function of ATO may represent a fundamental mechanism for generating mechanosensory cilia because, in zebrafish, an ATO ortholog (ATOH1B) activates a foxj1 paralog in the hair cells of the inner ear, leading to the formation of the immotile kinocilia (Yu et al, 2011).…”

“…Little is known about Cep131's cellular function, although Zebrafish and Drosophila lacking Cep131 orthologues have shortened cilia, and display phenotypes reminiscent of human ciliopathies such as Bardet-Biedl syndrome (Ma and Jarman, 2011;Wilkinson et al, 2009). Interestingly, Cep131 depletion results in reduced ciliogenesis in human epithelial cells, with those cilia that do form exhibiting gross morphological defects (Graser et al, 2007).…”
