IFT80 encodes intraflagellar transport 80 (777 aa). Component of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex B, which is essential for the development and maintenance of motile and sensory cilia Highest expression in Pituitary (41.8 TPM) and Cells Cultured fibroblasts (33.8 TPM).
Asphyxiating thoracic dystrophy 2 is caused by mutations in the IFT80 gene on chromosome 3.
IFT80 is classified as a druggable target with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for IFT80 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
