General annotation (Comments)

Function

Might be involved in minus end-directed microtubule transport. Ref.5

Subunit structure

Interacts with NINL. Interacts with OFD1. Ref.7 Ref.8

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmcytoskeleton. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncilium axoneme. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncilium basal body. Cytoplasmcytoskeletoncentrosome. Note: In non-ciliated cells, localizes to the centrosome and its associated microtubule array. Ref.5

Involvement in disease

Defects in LCA5 are the cause of Leber congenital amaurosis type 5 (LCA5) [MIM:604537]. LCA designates a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of childhood retinal degenerations, generally inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Affected infants have little or no retinal photoreceptor function as tested by electroretinography. LCA represents the most common genetic cause of congenital visual impairment in infants and children. Ref.4 Ref.5 Ref.6

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the LCA5 family.
