Description

B9D1 encodes a component of the tectonic-like complex, which is essential for ciliogenesis and the maintenance of primary cilia. Mutations in B9D1 cause ciliopathies such as Meckel syndrome type 9 and Joubert syndrome, characterized by renal cysts, encephalocele, and retinal dystrophy.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Meckel syndrome type 9 Loss of B9D1 disrupts ciliary function, leading to developmental defects OMIM #614209
Joubert syndrome Biallelic B9D1 mutations impair ciliary signaling, causing cerebellar and retinal anomalies OMIM #617120

Protein Summary

B9D1 is a 21 kDa protein containing a B9 domain, localized to the base of primary cilia. It interacts with other tectonic complex proteins (e.g., TCTN1, TCTN2) to regulate ciliary membrane composition and signaling.
