Primary Identifier | MGI:1913514 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 66264 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be involved in cilium assembly. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in centrosome. Is expressed in central nervous system; foregut; ganglia; and olfactory epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bardet-Biedl syndrome and Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1. Orthologous to human CCDC28B (coiled-coil domain containing 28B). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mice with no protein expression show a mild cilia length decrease in the brain, social interaction defects, increase in stereotypical behaviors, and mild glucose management phenotype.
