Protein attributes
| Sequence length | 4167 AA. |

| Protein existence | Evidence at protein level |
General annotation (Comments)
| Function | Involved in PCM1-dependent intracellular transport. Required, directly or indirectly, for the localization of NCAPD2 to the proximal ends of centrioles. Required for proper formation and/or maintenance of primary cilia (PC), microtubule-based structures that protrude from the surface of epithelial cells. Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.11 |
| Subcellular location | Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm › cytoskeleton › centrosome. Cytoplasm › cytoskeleton › cilium basal body. Cytoplasm › cytoskeleton › spindle pole. Note: Associated with centrosomes and basal bodies at the base of primary cilia. Specifically locates to the proximal ends of centrioles and basal bodies. Colocalizes partially with NCAPD2 at these sites. During mitosis localizes to both spindle poles. Ref.7 Ref.8 Ref.11 |
| Tissue specificity | Expressed in all tissues tested including adipose and pancreas. Expressed by beta-cells of the islets in the pancreas (at protein level). Ref.1 Ref.6 |
| Developmental stage | Widely expressed in fetal tissues. Detected in fetal pancreas, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney and brain (at protein level). Expressed in fetal aorta and brain. Ref.1 Ref.6 |
| Involvement in disease | Alstrom syndrome (ALMS) [MIM:203800]: A rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive cone-rod retinal dystrophy, neurosensory hearing loss, early childhood obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2. Dilated cardiomyopathy, acanthosis nigricans, male hypogonadism, hypothyroidism, developmental delay and hepatic dysfunction can also be associated with the syndrome. |
