Description

Involved in cilium assembly and embryonic viscerocranium morphogenesis. Predicted to localize to integrin complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in end stage renal failure; ovarian cancer; renal agenesis; and schizophrenia. Is expressed in hair cell; head; inner ear; neuromast hair cell; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human ITGA8 (integrin subunit alpha 8).
