摘 要:The uncharacterized gene KIAA1109 has recently been associated with a congenital neurological malformation disorder that variably presents with arthrogryposis,craniofacial and/or cardiac *** have identified two additional patients with compound heterozygous KIAA1109 variants presenting with the same neurological *** mechanism whereby KIAA1109 loss of function causes this spectrum of disorders was the primary focus of our *** hypothesized that KIAA1109 function could be conserved relative to the fly gene tweek and examined endocytosis and endosome recycling in patient ***,we examined the structure of the cytoskeleton and cilia based on functional overlap with endocytosis and several known etiologies for neuronal migration *** primary dermal fibroblasts from one patient and a healthy donor,we performed immunofluorescence and endocytosis assays to examine the endosomal,cytoskeletal,and ciliary cellular *** found notable abnormalities in endosomal trafficking and endosome recycling *** also observed changes in the actin cytoskeleton and cilia structural *** conclude that the function of KIAA1109 in humans may indeed overlap with the function of the Drosophila ortholog,resulting in perturbations to endosomal trafficking and the actin *** alterations have ripple effects,altering many pathways that are critical for proper neuronal migration and embryonic development.
