Abstract:In animals, cilia are important for the interaction with environments and the proper function of tissues and organs. Understanding the distinctive identities of each type of ciliated cell is essential for therapeutic solutions for ciliopathies, complex disorders with impairments of various organs caused by defective cilia development and function. Here, we report a regulatory module consisting of a cascade of transcription factors and their target genes that confer the cell type-specific ciliary identities on … Show more
