Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Involved in centriole elongation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including chordate embryonic development; embryonic morphogenesis; and protein localization to centrosome. Located in centriolar satellite; centriole; and ciliary basal body. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system mesenchyme; brain; face; oral epithelium; and perichondrium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in orofaciodigital syndrome. Orthologous to human C2CD3 (C2 domain containing 3 centriole elongation regulator).
