An integrin beta-1-anchored bicaudal C1-polycystin-1 module essential for tubular morphogenesis in polycystic kidney disease

Genetic variants in the RNA-binding protein bicaudal C1 (BICC1) have been linked to very-early-onset polycystic kidney disease (PKD). This study identifies a crucial integrin-beta1 (ITGB1)-BICC1-polycystin-1 (PC1) complex that regulates F-actin organization and cell adhesion in h...
