Summary
Predicted to be involved in determination of left/right symmetry; manchette assembly; and sperm flagellum assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cilium movement involved in extracellular fluid movement; flagellated sperm motility; and protein localization to motile cilium. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including ciliary transition zone; microtubule cytoskeleton; and motile cilium. Predicted to be active in axonemal A tubule inner sheath and sperm flagellum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in visceral heterotaxy 6. Orthologous to human CFAP53 (cilia and flagella associated protein 53). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
