======= EVC2 ======= == Gene Information == * **Official Symbol**: EVC2 * **Official Name**: EvC ciliary complex subunit 2 * **Aliases and Previous Symbols**: N/A * **Entrez ID**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=132884|132884]] * **UniProt**: [[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q86UK5|Q86UK5]] * **Interactions**: [[https://thebiogrid.org/search.php?search=EVC2&organism=9606|BioGRID]] * **PubMed articles**: [[https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=gene%20EVC2|Open PubMed]] * **OMIM**: [[https://omim.org/entry/607261|Open OMIM]] == Function Summary == * **Entrez Summary**: This gene encodes a protein that functions in bone formation and skeletal development. Mutations in this gene, as well as in a neighboring gene that lies in a head-to-head configuration, cause Ellis-van Creveld syndrome, an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia that is also known as chondroectodermal dysplasia. Mutations in this gene also cause acrofacial dysostosis Weyers type, also referred to as Curry-Hall syndrome, a disease that combines limb and facial abnormalities. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. * **UniProt Summary**: Component of the EvC complex that positively regulates ciliary Hedgehog (Hh) signaling. Plays a critical role in bone formation and skeletal development. May be involved in early embryonic morphogenesis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K1G2}. |EVC2 like| |plasma membrane protein complex| |ciliary membrane| |smoothened signaling pathway| |cilium| |cytoskeleton| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
