| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables actin binding activity; kinesin binding activity; and structural molecule activity. A structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including ciliary basal body organization; epithelial structure maintenance; and photoreceptor cell maintenance. Located in several cellular components, including cytoskeleton; photoreceptor inner segment; and subapical part of cell. Is expressed in brain; ciliated columnar oviduct epithelium; metanephros; retina; and trachea. Orthologous to human CROCC (ciliary rootlet coiled-coil, rootletin). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation show no apparent functional deficits in phototransduction and ciliary beating in sensory and motile cilia. However, photoreceptors degenerate over time, and lungs appear prone to pathological changes. [provided by MGI curators] |
