Also known as: CED3; RP81; SRTD18; C14orf179
Summary: This gene encodes a subunit of the intraflagellar transport complex A (IFT-A). IFT-A is a multiprotein complex that plays an important role in cilia assembly and maintenance by mediating retrograde ciliary transport. Mutations in this gene are a cause of cranioectodermal dysplasia-3 (CED3), also known as Sensenbrenner syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
Expression: Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 8.4), thyroid (RPKM 6.9) and 25 other tissues See more

What's a GeneRIF?

Studies identified a novel homozygous mutation in the ciliary protein IFT43 as the underlying cause of recessive inherited retinal degeneration. This is the first report demonstrating the involvement of IFT43 in retinal degeneration.
Title: A mutation in IFT43 causes non-syndromic recessive retinal degeneration.
These results suggest that CED-4 forms a complex with ced-3 mRNA and delivers it to ribosomes for translation.
Title: CED-4 is an mRNA-binding protein that delivers ced-3 mRNA to ribosomes.
C14ORF179 encoding IFT43 is mutated in Sensenbrenner syndrome.
Title: C14ORF179 encoding IFT43 is mutated in Sensenbrenner syndrome.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.

NR_045664.2 RNA Sequence

Status: REVIEWED

Description

Transcript Variant: This variant (4) lacks an internal exon and uses an alternate splice site in the 3' UTR, compared to variant 1. This variant is represented as non-coding because the use of the 5'-most expected translational start codon, as used in variant 1, renders the transcript a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).
