Intraflagellar transport protein 80 homolog (IFT80), also known as WD repeat-containing protein 56, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IFT80 gene.[5][6]
Function
IFT80 is part of the intraflagellar transport complex B and is necessary for the function of motile and sensory cilia.[5]
Clinical significance
Mutations in the IFT80 gene are associated with asphyxiating thoracic dysplasia.[6]
