CCDC40 (gene)
CCDC40 is the gene in humans that encodes the protein named coiled-coil domain containing 40.[5]
Function
[edit]This gene encodes a protein that is necessary for motile cilia function. It functions in correct left-right axis formation by regulating the assembly of the inner dynein arm and the dynein regulatory complexes, which control ciliary beat. Mutations in this gene cause primary ciliary dyskinesia type 15, a disorder due to defects in cilia motility. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
