nomenclature changes

27FEB2023

THE HGNC, after a request from some of our specialist advisors and a consultation with authors publishing on these genes , have updated the nomenclature of three flagellar transport genes in human as follows: from TTCP26 , tetratricopeptide repeat domain 26 to IFT56, intraflagellar transport 56.

Xenopus gene names follow that of human, so the Xenopus gene name has also changed from ttcp26 , tetratricopeptide repeat domain 26 to ift56, intraflagellar transport 56.

Note the 3 genes in this group are now have the following synonyms:
