Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Acts upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cilium movement involved in extracellular fluid movement; flagellated sperm motility; and protein localization to motile cilium. Located in cytoskeleton and motile cilium. Is active in axonemal A tubule inner sheath. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in visceral heterotaxy. Orthologous to human CFAP53 (cilia and flagella associated protein 53).
