Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n CFAP300, also known as C11orf70, is a highly conserved protein that plays an essential role in the cytoplasmic preassembly of axonemal dynein arms—both the outer (ODA) and inner (IDA) types—which are critical for the motility of respiratory cilia and sperm flagella."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "3"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": " Expression studies have shown that CFAP300 is upregulated during ciliogenesis in ciliated respiratory cells, and its proper function is required for the assembly of dynein arms; loss‐of‐function mutations in CFAP300 result in the combined loss of ODAs and IDAs, leading to immotile cilia and sperm flagella. These defects manifest clinically as primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and are associated with male infertility, laterality defects, and airway disease. In addition, transcriptomic analyses in testicular germ cell tumors have revealed that C11orf70 is underexpressed, suggesting that alterations in its expression may be linked to broader pathological conditions."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "4"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Inga M Höben, Rim Hjeij, Heike Olbrich, et al.
