CEP41 centrosomal protein 41

Gene ID: 95681, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: JBTS15; TSGA14

Summary

This gene encodes a centrosomal and microtubule-binding protein which is predicted to have two coiled-coil domains and a rhodanese domain. In human retinal pigment epithelial cells the protein localized to centrioles and cilia. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Joubert Syndrome 15; an autosomal recessive ciliopathy and neurological disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
