Cep78 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Involved in cilium organization; flagellated sperm motility; and protein localization to cilium. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in centriole; centrosome; and ciliary basal body. Is expressed in eye. Orthologous to human CEP78 (centrosomal protein 78). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Cep78 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
