A genetic interaction network of five genes for human polycystic kidney and liver diseases defines polycystin-1 as the central determinant of cyst formation
2011
Stefan Somlo and colleagues show that the polycystic liver disease genes Prkcsh and Sec63 are required for the proper biogenesis of polycystin complexes. They further show that a Pkd1 transgene can rescue the cystic phenotype of Prkcsh and Sec63 mutant mice, identifying polycystin-1 as the central determinant of cyst formation.
