About Pifo

Summary

Enables cytoskeletal protein binding activity and enzyme binding activity. Involved in regulation of cell projection organization. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on cilium organization. Acts upstream of or within embryonic heart tube left/right pattern formation. Located in ciliary basal body; nucleus; and trans-Golgi network. Is expressed in several structures, including brain ventricle and choroid plexus; embryo ectoderm; lung mesenchyme; node; and testis. Orthologous to human PIFO (primary cilia formation). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
