Function
Mutated in OFD. TTC23 localizes to the shaft of the cilia in controls but is restricted mainly to the base of the cilia in patient fibroblasts. Patient fibroblasts show normal ciliogenesis but increased length of cilia compared with control (32055034). Affinity purification and mass spectrometry show TTC23 to strongly associate with IQCE and EFCAB7, components of the Ellis鈥搗an Creveld (EvC) zone (29459677)
