Summary: Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and GTPase activity. Involved in several processes, including intraciliary transport; smoothened signaling pathway; and spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within cochlea development and inner ear receptor cell stereocilium organization. Located in several cellular components, including centrosome; nucleus; and sperm flagellum. Part of intraciliary transport particle B. Is expressed in several structures, including secondary heart field; skin; and yolk sac mesenchyme. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bardet-Biedl syndrome 19. Orthologous to human IFT27 (intraflagellar transport 27). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?

This work indicates that IFT25 and IFT27 are important players in the early development of the kidney and suggest that duplex kidney is part of the ciliopathy spectrum.
Title: Ift25 is not a cystic kidney disease gene but is required for early steps of kidney development.
Findings suggest that like IFT25, IFT27, even though not required for ciliogenesis in somatic cells, is essential for sperm flagella formation, sperm function, and male fertility in mice. IFT25 and IFT27 control sperm formation/function through many common mechanisms, but IFT25 has additional roles beyond IFT27.
Title: Intraflagellar transporter protein (IFT27), an IFT25 binding partner, is essential for male fertility and spermiogenesis in mice.
The study implicates Ift27 in basal mechanosensation.
Title: Systems genetic and pharmacological analysis identifies candidate genes underlying mechanosensation in the von Frey test.
this study demonstrated an essential role of Ift27 in mediating hedgehog signaling during follicular keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation but not the differentiation program of the interfollicular epidermis.
Title: Intraflagellar transport 27 is essential for hedgehog signaling but dispensable for ciliogenesis during hair follicle morphogenesis.
IFT27 prevents aggregation of nucleotide-free ARL6 in solution
Title: The intraflagellar transport protein IFT27 promotes BBSome exit from cilia through the GTPase ARL6/BBS3.
Lztfl1 accumulate to high levels in Ift27 mutant cilia.
Title: IFT27 links the BBSome to IFT for maintenance of the ciliary signaling compartment.

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.
