gene function

CLUAP1 is a relatively recently described member of the IFT complex, having been shown to be involved in ciliogenesis in mice, zebrafish, and the frog Xenopus (Pasek et al. 2012; Botilde et al. 2013; Lee et al. 2014). Recently, hypomorphic mutations were identified in human CLUAP1 associated with the retinal ciliopathy Leber congenital amaurosis (Soens et al. 2016)

summary from NCBI

The protein encoded by this gene contains a single coiled-coil region. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2012] Also known as FAP22; IFT38; CFAP22
