Description

C2CD3 encodes a protein containing a C2 calcium-dependent domain that is essential for primary cilium formation. It localizes to the centrosome and is required for centriole elongation and ciliogenesis. Mutations in C2CD3 cause Joubert syndrome and orofaciodigital syndrome, highlighting its critical role in ciliary function and development.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Joubert syndrome 17 Loss-of-function mutations impair ciliogenesis, leading to cerebellar and brainstem malformations OMIM #615948
Orofaciodigital syndrome XIV Disrupted ciliary signaling due to C2CD3 deficiency causes facial, oral, and digital anomalies OMIM #615948
Ciliopathy-related phenotypes Defective primary cilium assembly results in renal, retinal, and skeletal abnormalities ClinVar

Protein Summary

C2CD3 is a 2276-amino acid protein with a C2 domain that binds calcium and phospholipids. It localizes to the centrosome and is essential for centriole elongation and primary cilium formation. The protein interacts with other ciliopathy-associated proteins and is required for normal Hedgehog signaling.
