... X-box-regulated /ciliary genes Many, or even the majority, of these candidate ciliary genes when mutated may cause a dye filling defect Since the majority (83 out of 93) of the candidate X-box-regulated genes ... of bona fide Xbox regulated genes in C elegans In fact, there are still seven dyf genes (dyf-4, dyf-7, dyf-8, dyf-9, dyf-10, dyf-11 and dyf12) in C elegans that remain to be identified However, ... understanding of known BBS genes, the C elegans dye filling defect phenotype, and, most importantly, the presence of a shared synteny of regulatory (X-box) motifs among conserved genes It will be of...
