IFT172 intraflagellar transport 172

Gene ID: 26160, updated on 17-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SLB; wim; RP71; BBS20; osm-1; NPHP17; SRTD10

Summary

This gene encodes a subunit of the intraflagellar transport subcomplex IFT-B. Subcomplexes IFT-A and IFT-B are necessary for ciliary assembly and maintenance. Mutations in this gene have been associated with skeletal ciliopathies, with or without polydactyly, such as such short-rib thoracic dysplasias 1, 9 or 10. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
