CEP41 Proteine

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.
