- Description
- Involved in several processes, including Kupffer's vesicle development; animal organ development; and establishment of pigment granule localization. Predicted to localize to BBSome. Used to study ciliopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bardet-Biedl syndrome; Bardet-Biedl syndrome 8; and retinitis pigmentosa 51. Orthologous to human TTC8 (tetratricopeptide repeat domain 8).
