Function
The Bardet-Biedl syndrome 10 protein has distant sequence homology to type II chaperonins. As a molecular chaperone, this protein may affect the folding or stability of other ciliary or basal body proteins. Inhibition of this protein's expression impairs ciliogenesis in preadipocytes.[6][7]
Clinical significance
Mutations in this gene are associated with the Bardet–Biedl syndrome.[5]
