Function

CCT7 components of the chaperonin-containing TCP1 (CCT/TRiC complex), associated mainly with sperm flagella assembly, not specific to cilia structure(39743588). Identified by cryo-EM as a component of the radial spoke-associated barrel in sperm flagella (Leung et al., 2025, Nature, PMID 39743588).
