Subcellular localization

cilia associated gene, endosome

Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Signaling (Hedgehog, GPCRs, ion channels)

Function

CRP inhibits the osteoblastic differentiation of OPCs via the up-regulation of primary cilia and repression of the Hedgehog sig ling pathway ( 38345752).
