Primary ciliary dyskinesia: genes, candidate genes
... reported (McKusick 2002). It is possible that many ciliary protein gene mutations may be lethal even if heterozygous. On the other hand, mutations in other genes may not affect ciliary function at all, perhaps due to the redundancy of functions of common gene families such as dyneins. In any case, t ...
