Name | IQCB1 |
---|---|
Synonyms | KIAA0036, NPHP5 |
Function | Involved in ciliogenesis. The function in an early step in cilia formation depends on its association with CEP290/NPHP6 (PubMed:21565611, PubMed:23446637). Involved in regulation of the BBSome complex integrity, specifically for presence of BBS2 and BBS5 in the complex, and in ciliary targeting of selected BBSome cargos. May play a role in controlling entry of the BBSome complex to cilia possibly implicating CEP290/NPHP6 (PubMed:25552655). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole. Note=Localization to the centrosome depends on the interaction with CEP290/NPHP6 |
Tissue Location | Ubiquitously expressed in fetal and adult tissues. Localized to the outer segments and connecting cilia of photoreceptor cells. Up-regulated in a number of primary colorectal and gastric tumors. |

Background
This gene encodes a nephrocystin protein that interactswith calmodulin and the retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulatorprotein. The encoded protein has a central coiled-coil region andtwo calmodulin-binding IQ domains. It is localized to the primarycilia of renal epithelial cells and connecting cilia ofphotoreceptor cells. The protein is thought to play a role inciliary function. Defects in this gene result in Senior-Lokensyndrome type 5. Alternative splicing results in multipletranscript variants.
