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.

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.
