Deskripsi

Park et al. characterise the interactome, localisation and function of Actin-Related Protein-Testis1 protein (ARP-T1), encoded by the ACTRT1 gene, associated with inherited basal cell cancer. They find that ARP-T1 is localised to the primary cilia basal body in epidermal cells, interacts with the cilia machinery, and is needed for proper ciliogenesis.
