Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to be involved in cilium assembly. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell projection organization. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including centrosome; cytosol; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in centriole and non-motile cilium. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hydrolethalus syndrome 1. Orthologous to human HYLS1 (HYLS1 centriolar and ciliogenesis associated).
