Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** TMEM216 is a transmembrane protein, consisting of four transmembrane domains, which are crucial for its function in anchoring the basal body to the plasma membrane. The protein is significantly expressed in various cell types, including hematopoietic cells, epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. Notably, TMEM216 is specifically expressed in non-motile cilia, which are essential for maintaining the structural integrity of cilia and facilitating the transport of molecules across the epithelial barrier. **Pathways and Functions:** TMEM216 plays a pivotal role in the assembly and maintenance of cilia, a complex structure composed of microtubules, dynein arms, and the basal body. The protein interacts with various components of the cilium, including the Mks complex, which is essential for the assembly and maintenance of cilia. TMEM216 also regulates the cytoskeleton and cytosol, modulating the dynamics of cilia assembly and disassembly. Furthermore, TMEM216 has been implicated in the regulation of protein binding, which is critical for the proper functioning of cilia. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of TMEM216 has been linked to various immune-related disorders, including primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and immunodeficiency. PCD is a rare genetic disorder characterized by impaired cilia function, leading to recurrent respiratory infections, infertility, and other systemic complications. Immunodeficiency, on the other hand, is a condition where the immune system is compromised, making individuals susceptible to infections. The identification of TMEM216 as a critical component in cilia biogenesis and maintenance highlights its potential as a therapeutic target for the treatment of these disorders. In conclusion, TMEM216 is a novel protein that plays a crucial role in the assembly and maintenance of cilia, a complex structure essential for various cellular functions, including immune response. Further research on TMEM216 is warranted to elucidate its mechanisms of action and to explore its potential as a therapeutic target for immune-related disorders. **Future Directions:** To further explore the role of TMEM216 in immune function, future studies should focus on: 1. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms underlying TMEM216 function in cilia biogenesis and maintenance. 2. Investigating the effects of TMEM216 dysregulation on immune function and disease susceptibility. 3. Developing novel therapeutic strategies targeting TMEM216 for the treatment of immune-related disorders. By advancing our understanding of TMEM216, we can uncover new avenues for the treatment of immune-related disorders and improve our understanding of the complex relationships between cilia, immune function, and human health.
