Defects in WDR60 gene have been associated with ciliopathies such as short rib-polydactyly syndrome and Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy (McInerney-Leo et al., 2013; Cossu et al., 2016; Kakar et al., 2018); and defects in WDR34 gene have been associated with ciliopathies such as short-rib thoracic dysplasia 11 with or without polydactyly (Huber et al., 2013; Schmidts et al., 2013). Here, DYNC2I1 is linked to ciliopathy.
