General annotation (Comments)

Function

Acts as a positive mediator of Hedgehog signaling indispensable for normal endochondral growth and skeletal development By similarity.

Subunit structure

Interacts with EVC2 By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein By similarity. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncilium basal body By similarity. Cell projectioncilium By similarity. Cell projectioncilium membrane By similarity. Note: EVC2 is required for the localization of EVC at the base of primary cilia By similarity.

Tissue specificity

Found in the developing vertebral bodies, ribs, upper and lower limbs, heart, kidney, lung.

Involvement in disease

Defects in EVC are a cause of Ellis-van Creveld syndrome (EVC) [MIM:225500]; also known as chondroectodermal dysplasia. EVC is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by the clinical tetrad of chondrodystrophy, polydactyly, ectodermal dysplasia and cardiac anomalies. Patients manifest short-limb dwarfism, short ribs, postaxial polydactyly and dysplastic nails and teeth. Congenital heart defects, most commonly an atrioventricular septal defect, are observed in 60% of affected individuals. Ref.1 Ref.4 Ref.5

Defects in EVC are a cause of acrofacial dysostosis Weyers type (WAD) [MIM:193530]; also known as Curry-Hall syndrome. Acrofacial dysostoses are a heterogeneous group of disorders combining limb defects with facial abnormalities. WAD is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by dysplastic nails, postaxial polydactyly, acrofacial dysostosis, short limbs and short stature. The phenotype is milder than Ellis-van Creveld syndrome. Ref.1
