This gene encodes a nephrocystin protein that interacts
with calmodulin and the retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator
protein. The encoded protein has a central coiled-coil region and
two calmodulin-binding IQ domains. It is localized to the primary
cilia of renal epithelial cells and connecting cilia of
photoreceptor cells. The protein is thought to play a role in
ciliary function. Defects in this gene result in Senior-Loken
syndrome type 5. Alternative splicing results in multiple
transcript variants.1) Hildebrandt, F., et al. J. Am. Soc. Nephrol. 20(1):23-35(2009)
