Tmem107 - transmembrane protein 107

Involved in several processes, including embryonic digit morphogenesis; non-motile cilium assembly; and protein localization to ciliary transition zone. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including craniofacial suture morphogenesis; detection of nodal flow; and roof of mouth development. Located in ciliary transition zone. Is expressed in brain ventricle and choroid plexus; nasal cavity epithelium; node; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Meckel syndrome 13 and orofaciodigital syndrome XVI. Orthologous to human TMEM107 (transmembrane protein 107). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
