Our latest manuscript explaining why PCD patients with CCDC39 and CCDC40 variants have disproportionately severe disease is now on BioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.1101 .
We posted our manuscript on the cilia-dependent and cilia-independent phenotypes of the ccdc39 and ccdc40 variants that cause primary ciliary dyskinesia on BioRxiv. A great collaboration with unexpected findings.
