BBSome complex assembly protein BBS10, also known as Bardet–Biedl syndrome 10 protein, is encoded in the human by the BBS10 gene.[5][6]

Function

The Bardet-Biedl syndrome 10 protein has distant sequence homology to type II chaperonins. As a molecular chaperone, this protein may affect the folding or stability of other ciliary or basal body proteins. Inhibition of this protein's expression impairs ciliogenesis in preadipocytes.[7][8]

Clinical significance

Mutations in this gene are associated with the Bardet–Biedl syndrome.[6]
