Phenotypes
- Human ciliopathy phenotype:
- retinitis pigmentosa

basal body, cilia
Functional category
- Ciliary assembly/disassembly
- Signaling (Hedgehog, GPCRs, ion channels)
- Ciliary membrane
Function
Localised to rod outer segment by ARL13B (30573647). Encodes for the inhibitory gamma subunit of rod photoreceptor cyclic GMP- phosphodiesterase. Mutations are associated with retinitis pigmentosa (20655036).
Model organism evidence
Mus musculus (1 reference)
In the absence of ARL13B, photoreceptors failed to develop outer segment (OS) membranous discs and axonemes, resulting in loss of function and rapid degeneration.
