Full name: cilia and flagella associated protein 298

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: C21orf48; C21orf59; CILD26; DNAAF16; FBB18; Kur

Summary: This gene encodes a protein that plays a critical role in dynein arm assembly and motile cilia function. Mutations in this gene result in primary ciliary dyskinesia. Naturally occuring readthrough transcription occurs from this locus to the downstream t-complex 10 like (TCP10L) gene. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

Expression: Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 33.6), kidney (RPKM 20.7) and 25 other tissues

Gene size: 13024bp

Exon count: 7
