Intellectual disability (ID) is a prevalent developmental disorder of cognition that remains incurable. Here, we report that knockdown of the X-linked ID (XLID) protein polyglutamine-binding protein 1 (PQBP1) in neurons profoundly impairs the morphogenesis of the primary cilium, including in the mouse cerebral cortex in vivo. PQBP1 is localized at the base of the neuronal cilium, and targeting its WW effector domain to the cilium stimulates ciliary morphogenesis. We also find that PQBP1 interacts with Dynamin 2 and thereby inhibits its GTPase activity. Accordingly, Dynamin 2 knockdown in neurons stimulates ciliogenesis and suppresses the PQBP1 knockdown-induced ciliary phenotype. Strikingly, a mutation of the PQBP1 WW domain that causes XLID disrupts its ability to interact with and inhibit Dynamin 2 and to induce neuronal ciliogenesis. These findings define PQBP1 and Dynamin 2 as components of a signaling pathway that orchestrates neuronal ciliary morphogenesis in the brain. |
