CSPP1 centrosome and spindle pole associated protein 1

Gene ID: 79848, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CSPP; CSPP-L; JBTS21

Summary

This gene encodes a centrosome and spindle pole associated protein. The encoded protein plays a role in cell-cycle progression and spindle organization, regulates cytokinesis, interacts with Nephrocystin 8 and is required for cilia formation. Mutations in this gene result in primary cilia abnormalities and classical Joubert syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene.
