Disease_model_descriptionCiliopathies are a group of developmental and degenerative disorders characterised by cilia dysfunction; TOGARAM1 (TOG array regulator of axonemal microtubules 1) encodes a member of the Crescerin1 family of proteins regulating microtubule dynamics. In C. elegans, the engineered che12(pan11[Arg284Trp (AGA >TGG)]) mutation corresponds to the missense variant in TOGARAM1; mutant animals displayed impaired lipophilic dye uptake, with shorter and altered cilia in sensory neurons; this data points to a causative role of TOGARAM1 variants in the pathogenesis of this ciliopathy.
