The role for HNF-1beta-targeted collectrin in maintenance of primary cilia and cell polarity in collecting duct cells.

Collectrin, a homologue of angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), is a type I transmembrane protein, and we originally reported its localization to the cytoplasm and apical membrane of collecting duct cells.
