Gene: CEP83

Alternate names for this Gene: CCDC41|NPHP18|NY-REN-58

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a centriolar protein involved in primary cilium assembly. Defects in this gene have been associated with infantile nephronophthisis and intellectual disability.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 12

Location in Chromosome : 12q22

Description of this Gene: centrosomal protein 83

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: PLXNC1

Alternate names for this Gene: CD232|PLXN-C1|VESPR

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the plexin family. Plexins are transmembrane receptors for semaphorins, a large family of proteins that regulate axon guidance, cell motility and migration, and the immune response. The encoded protein and its ligand regulate melanocyte adhesion, and viral semaphorins may modulate the immune response by binding to this receptor. The encoded protein may be a tumor suppressor protein for melanoma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene.
