BBIP1 BBSome interacting protein 1

Gene ID: 92482, updated on 5-Mar-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: BBS18; BBIP10; bA348N5.3; NCRNA00081

Summary

This gene encodes one of eight proteins that form the BBSome complex and is essential for its assembly. The BBSome complex is involved in trafficking signal receptors to and from the cilia. Mutations in this gene result in Bardet-Biedl syndrome 18. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2014]
