ift-81 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable tubulin binding activity. Involved in chemotaxis; detection of stimulus involved in sensory perception; and intraciliary transport. Located in non-motile cilium. Expressed in amphid neurons; chemosensory neurons; and phasmid neurons. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in short-rib thoracic dysplasia 19 with or without polydactyly. Is an ortholog of human IFT81 (intraflagellar transport 81).
