Description: Homo sapiens RPGRIP1-like (RPGRIP1L), transcript variant 1, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_015272): The protein encoded by this gene can localize to the basal body-centrosome complex or to primary cilia and centrosomes in ciliated cells. The encoded protein has been found to interact with nephrocystin-4. Defects in this gene are a cause of Joubert syndrome type 7 (JBTS7) and Meckel syndrome type 5 (MKS5).

Transcript (Including UTRs) Position: hg19 chr16:53,633,818-53,737,771 Size: 103,954 Total Exon Count: 27 Strand: - Coding Region Position: hg19 chr16:53,635,988-53,734,635 Size: 98,648 Coding Exon Count: 26
ID:FTM_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Protein fantom; AltName: Full=Nephrocystin-8; AltName: Full=RPGR-interacting protein 1-like protein; Short=RPGRIP1-like protein; FUNCTION: Negatively regulates signaling through the G-protein coupled thromboxane A2 receptor (TBXA2R). May be involved in mechanisms like programmed cell death, craniofacial development, patterning of the limbs, and formation of the left-right axis (By similarity). Involved in the organization of apical junctions in kidney cells together with NPHP1 and NPHP4 (By similarity). Does not seem to be strictly required for ciliogenesis (By similarity). SUBUNIT: Interacts with NPHP4 in a complex containing NPHP1, NPHP4 and RPGRIP1L/NPHP8. Interacts with TBXA2R (via C-terminus). Interacts with IQCB1; the interaction likely requires additional interactors. Interacts with RPGR. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium axoneme. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome. Cell junction, tight junction. Note=In cultured renal cells, it localizes diffusely in the cytoplasm but, as cells approach confluence, it accumulates to basolateral tight junctions. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitously expressed with relatively high level of expression in hypothalamus and islet. During early development, expressed in multiple organs including brain, eye, forelimb and kidney. DISEASE: Note=Ciliary dysfunction leads to a broad spectrum of disorders, collectively termed ciliopathies. Overlapping clinical features include retinal degeneration, renal cystic disease, skeletal abnormalities, fibrosis of various organ, and a complex range of anatomical and functional defects of the central and peripheral nervous system. The ciliopathy range of diseases includes Meckel-Gruber syndrome, Bardet-Biedl syndrome, Joubert syndrome, nephronophtisis, Senior-Loken syndrome, and Jeune asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy among others. Single-locus allelism is insufficient to explain the variable penetrance and expressivity of such disorders, leading to the suggestion that variations across multiple sites of the ciliary proteome, including RPGRIP1L, influence the clinical outcome. DISEASE: Defects in RPGRIP1L are the cause of Joubert syndrome type 7 (JBTS7) [MIM:611560]. JBTS is an autosomal recessive disorder presenting with cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia, hypotonia, neonatal breathing abnormalities and psychomotor delay. Neuroradiologically, it is characterized by cerebellar vermis hypoplasia/aplasia, thickened and reoriented superior cerebellar peduncles, and an abnormally large interpeduncular fossa, giving the appearance of a molar tooth on transaxial slices (molar tooth sign). Additional variable features include retinal dystrophy and renal disease. DISEASE: Defects in RPGRIP1L are the cause of Meckel syndrome type 5 (MKS5) [MIM:611561]. MKS is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a combination of renal cysts and variably associated features including developmental anomalies of the central nervous system (typically encephalocele), hepatic ductal dysplasia and cysts, and polydactyly. DISEASE: Defects in RPGRIP1L are a cause of COACH syndrome (COACHS) [MIM:216360]. It is a disorder characterized by mental retardation, ataxia due to cerebellar hypoplasia, and hepatic fibrosis. Patients present the molar tooth sign, a midbrain- hindbrain malformation pathognomonic for Joubert syndrome and related disorders. Other features, such as coloboma and renal cysts, may be variable. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the RPGRIP1 family. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 C2 domains.
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
