MECP2 mutations affect ciliogenesis: a novel perspective for Rett syndrome and related disorders
Abstract Mutations in MECP2 cause several neurological disorders of which Rett syndrome (RTT) represents the best‐defined condition. Although mainly working as a transcriptional repressor, MeCP2 is a multifunctional protein revealing several activities, the involvement of which in RTT remains obscur...
