Summary

The study revealed that proteins involved in vesicle transport, cytoskeleton dynamics, signaling, and ubiquitination converge in complexes related to ciliary signaling and proteostasis. In this context, KRTAP12-4 may contribute to maintaining the integrity of these protein assemblies, thereby potentially influencing ciliogenesis and the proper function of ciliary signaling pathways. Moreover, as the study linked defects in cilia to genetic diseases like 3M syndrome by demonstrating impaired ciliogenesis in patient fibroblasts"}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ", the inclusion of KRTAP12-4 in the ciliary interactome warrants further investigation into its mechanistic role and its possible contribution to the pathology of ciliopathies. \n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Karsten Boldt, Jeroen van Reeuwijk, Qianhao Lu, et al.
