Description

DNAAF19 (dynein axonemal assembly factor 19) encodes a protein essential for the assembly of axonemal dynein arms in cilia. It is required for proper ciliary motility and is implicated in primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The protein localizes to the cytoplasm and is involved in preassembly of dynein complexes before transport to cilia.

Mutations & Variants

Hotspot Mutations
Variant Type Frequency Functional Description
c.325C>T (p.Arg109*) Nonsense Rare Loss of function; associated with PCD
c.1000_1001del (p.Leu334fs) Frameshift Rare Loss of function; associated with PCD

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Nonsense and frameshift mutations lead to truncated or absent protein, causing dynein arm assembly defects and primary ciliary dyskinesia.

Gain of Function (GOF)

No gain-of-function mutations reported.

Dominant Negative (DN)

No dominant-negative mutations reported.

Protein Summary

DNAAF19 (CFAP45) is a cytoplasmic protein of 584 amino acids that functions as a dynein axonemal assembly factor. It is required for the preassembly of outer and inner dynein arms before their transport into cilia. Loss of function leads to primary ciliary dyskinesia with defective mucociliary clearance.
