" /> Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 19 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 19;

Symbol : CILD19;

CISMeF acronym : CILD19;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Ciliary dyskinesia, primary, 19, with or without situs inversus;

Description : Primary ciliary dyskinesia-19 is an autosomal recessive ciliopathy characterized by chronic sinopulmonary infections, asthenospermia, and immotile cilia. Respiratory epithelial cells and sperm flagella of affected individuals lack both the inner and outer dynein arms. About 50% of patients have situs inversus (summary by Kott et al., 2012). For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of primary ciliary dyskinesia, see 244400.;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 6 gene (LRRC6, 614930.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Electron microscopy of patient respiratory cells shows absent inner and outer dynein arms; Lack of ciliary motility;

Prefixed ID : #614935;
