Meckelin Functions in the Guided Movement and Orientation of Basal Bodies Prior to Duplication in Paramecium tetraurelia

Ciliopathies are a group of disorders that arise from ciliary dysfunction. Meckelin (MKS3 or TMEM67) is a conserved transmembrane protein found at the transition zone of ciliated cells. In humans MKS3 is one of 3 genes linked to the ciliopathy Meckel Syndrome. This disease is characterized by occipi...
