Abstract
Lissencephaly 1 (LIS1) was the first gene implicated in the pathogenesis of type-1 lissencephaly. More than a decade of research by multiple laboratories has revealed that LIS1 is a key node protein, which participates in several pathways, including association with the molecular motor cytoplasmic dynein, the reelin signaling pathway, and the platelet-activating factor pathway. Mutations in LIS1-interacting proteins, either in human, or in mouse models has suggested that LIS1 might play a role in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases such as male sterility, schizophrenia, neuronal degeneration, and viral infections.
