DYX1C1 is required for axonemal dynein assembly and ciliary motility
DYX1C1 has been associated with dyslexia and neuronal migration in the developing neocortex. Unexpectedly, we found that deleting exons 2–4 of Dyx1c1 in mice caused a phenotype resembling primary… Expand

European Respiratory Society guidelines for the diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia
The diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia is often confirmed with standard, albeit complex and expensive, tests. In many cases, however, the diagnosis remains difficult despite the array of… Expand

MCIDAS mutations result in a mucociliary clearance disorder with reduced generation of multiple motile cilia.
Reduced generation of multiple motile cilia (RGMC) is a rare mucociliary clearance disorder. Affected persons suffer from recurrent infections of upper and lower airways because of highly reduced… Expand

The nexin-dynein regulatory complex subunit DRC1 is essential for motile cilia function in algae and humans
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is characterized by dysfunction of respiratory cilia and sperm flagella and random determination of visceral asymmetry. Here, we identify the DRC1 subunit of the… Expand

Mutations in SPAG1 cause primary ciliary dyskinesia associated with defective outer and inner dynein arms.
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetically heterogeneous, autosomal-recessive disorder, characterized by oto-sino-pulmonary disease and situs abnormalities. PCD-causing mutations have been… Expand

Mutations in PIH1D3 Cause X-Linked Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia with Outer and Inner Dynein Arm Defects
Defects in motile cilia and sperm flagella cause primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), characterized by chronic airway disease, infertility, and left-right body axis disturbance. Here we report… Expand

Mutations in CCNO result in congenital mucociliary clearance disorder with reduced generation of multiple motile cilia
Using a whole-exome sequencing strategy, we identified recessive CCNO (encoding cyclin O) mutations in 16 individuals suffering from chronic destructive lung disease due to insufficient airway… Expand

Recessive HYDIN mutations cause primary ciliary dyskinesia without randomization of left-right body asymmetry.
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a genetically heterogeneous recessive disorder characterized by defective cilia and flagella motility. Chronic destructive-airway disease is caused by abnormal… Expand

Ciliary beat pattern and frequency in genetic variants of primary ciliary dyskinesia
Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is a rare genetic disorder leading to recurrent respiratory tract infections. High-speed video-microscopy analysis (HVMA) of ciliary beating, currently the first-line… Expand

Loss-of-Function GAS8 Mutations Cause Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia and Disrupt the Nexin-Dynein Regulatory Complex.
Multiciliated epithelial cells protect the upper and lower airways from chronic bacterial infections by moving mucus and debris outward. Congenital disorders of ciliary beating, referred to as… Expand
