Intu - inturned planar cell polarity protein

Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cilium assembly; regulation of smoothened signaling pathway; and tongue morphogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cilium assembly; nervous system development; and skin development. Predicted to be located in ciliary basal body and motile cilium. Predicted to be active in cilium and cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy and orofaciodigital syndrome XVII. Orthologous to human INTU (inturned planar cell polarity protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
