How Can We Help?
ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 13B (ARL13B), also known as ADP-ribosylation factor-like protein 2-like 1, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARL13B gene.[5][6]
Function
This gene encodes a member of the ADP-ribosylation factor-like family. The encoded protein is a small GTPase that contains both N-terminal and C-terminal guanine nucleotide-binding motifs. This protein is localized in the cilia[7][8] and plays a role in cilia formation and in maintenance of cilia.[5]
Clinical significance
Mutations in the ARL13B gene are associated with the Joubert syndrome.[6]
