Protein Domain : Cytoplasmic dynein 2 heavy chain 1

Primary Identifier  IPR026815 Type  Family
Short Name  DYNC2H1
description  Cytoplasmic dynein 2 heavy chain 1 (DYNC2H1) is a subunit of the cytoplasmic dynein complex 2. It may function as a motor for intraflagellar retrograde transport. It also plays a role in cilia biogenesis []. Defects in DYNC2H1 are the cause of asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy type 3 (ATD3) and the cause of short rib-polydactyly syndrome type 3 (SRPS3, also called Verma-Naumoff syndrome). ATD3 is an autosomal recessive osteochondrodysplasia which often leads to death in infancy because of a severely constricted thoracic cage and respiratory insufficiency []. SRPS3 is a lethal skeletal dysplasia characterised by markedly short ribs, short limbs, polydactyly, narrow thorax, and multiple anomalies of major organs, including heart, intestines, genitalia, kidney, liver, and pancreas [].
