12. Using polymerase chain reaction sequencing of the entire coding region, we identified five gene mutations, including two unreported mutations. PMID: 26655004
13. cystinosin-deficient cells had abnormal shape and distribution of the endo-lysosomal compartments and impaired endocytosis, with decreased surface expression of multiligand receptors and delayed lysosomal cargo processing. PMID: 25811383
14. CTNS-LKG represents 5-20 % of CTNS transcripts, with the exception of the testis that expresses both isoforms in equal proportions. PMID: 22544350
15. identified two novel CTNS splicing deletions in a Chinese IC family, one at the donor site of exon 6 of CTNS and the other at the acceptor site of exon 8 PMID: 25866837
16. We recommend that black South African and Cape Coloured patients presenting with cystinosis be tested for CTNS-c.971-12G > A in the first instance, with the possibility of prenatal testing being offered to at-risk families. PMID: 25326109
17. The present data exhibit a fundament for molecular carrier detection and prenatal diagnosis of a relatively large percentage of Iranian patients suffering from NC PMID: 23640116
18. Cystinosin, MPDU1, SWEETs and KDELR belong to a well-defined protein family with putative function of cargo receptors.[cytonosin] PMID: 22363504
19. results objectify the pigmentation defect in patients with cystinosis. We also identify the role of CTNS in melanogenesis and add a new gene to the list of the genes involved in the control of skin and hair pigmentation PMID: 22649030
20. Mutation analysis of CTNS in six cystinosis patients from four families in Thailand. Using PCR sequencing of the entire coding regions, study identified all eight mutant alleles, including two mutations, p.G309D and p.Q284X, that have not been previously reported. PMID: 22450360
21. Report CTNS mutations in Turkish cystinosis patients. PMID: 21786142
22. cystinosin exports the proteolysis-derived dimeric amino acid cystine from lysosomes and is impaired in cystinosis. PMID: 22232659
23. CTNS plays a pivotal role in regulating cell thiol concentrations. PMID: 21508882
24. gene expression is modulated by intracellular thiols PMID: 20079424
25. Analysis of CTNS gene transcripts allowed identification of mutations in patients in whom CTNS mutations could not be detected by traditional DNA sequencing. PMID: 20352457
26. the cause of cellular ATP depletion in nephrotic cystinosis may be the futile cycle, formed between two ATP-dependant gamma-glutamyl cycle enzymes, gamma-glutamyl cysteine synthetase and 5-oxoprolinase PMID: 20413906
27. Analysis of the CTNS gene in 32 cystinosis patients from Spain PMID: 19863563
28. G339R mutation is a common cause of nephropathic cystinosis in the southwestern Ontario Amish Mennonite population PMID: 11565547

36. Sequencing analysis of all the CTNS exons revealed that the proband is homozygous for a 3-bp in-frame deletion in exon 10 (c.809_811delCCT), resulting in the loss of a conserved p.Ser270del within the fifth transmembrane domain of CTNS. PMID: 19580442
