“…Furthermore, the loss of Lgd function drives the over-proliferation of the imaginal discs, a phenotype that can be rescued by the expression of human CC2D1A or CC2D1B, indicating a functional overlap between these proteins (Drusenheimer et al., 2015). This redundancy was also observed in mammal models, as double CC2D1A/CC2D1B knockout mice died early during embryonic development (Zamarbide et al., 2018), but the deletion of CC2D1A or CC2D1B genes alone does not induce developmental defects (Drusenheimer et al., 2015, Zamarbide et al., 2018). However, non-redundant roles of these proteins are indicated by the perinatal death of CC2D1A-deficient mice (Al-Tawashi et al., 2012, Drusenheimer et al., 2015, Zamarbide et al., 2018).…”
