Summary

CFAP418 (cilia and flagella associated protein 418, HGNC:27232) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 8q22.1, encoding Cilia- and flagella-associated protein 418 (Q96NL8). May be involved in photoreceptor outer segment disk morphogenesis.

This gene encodes a ubiquitously expressed protein of unknown function. It has high levels of mRNA expression in the brain, heart, and retina and the protein co-localizes with polyglutamylated tubulin at the base of the primary cilium in human retinal pigment epithelial cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy (arCRD) and retinitis pigmentosa (arRP).

  • In a ciliary-expressed gene (C8orf37), mutations were identified that are associated with autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy and retinitis pigmentosa with early macular involvement. (PMID:22177090)
  • Mutations in C8orf37 give rise to an early or adolescent-onset autosomal recessive cone rod dystrophy or retinitis pigmentosa phenotype with early macular atrophy. (PMID:23788369)
  • Our study identified two novel truncating mutations of the C8orf37 gene in siblings with early-onset retinal dystrophy, macular atrophy, cataracts, and high myopia. (PMID:25113443)
  • Novel C8orf37 mutations cause retinitis pigmentosa in two consanguineous families of Pakistani origin. (PMID:25802487)
  • We conclude that C8orf37 should be added to Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS) screening panels as a probable rare cause of the disease and that individuals with C8orf37-related retinal dystrophy should be screened for BBS features. (PMID:26854863)
  • This report extends the genotypic spectrum of C8orf37-associated retinal dystrophies and demonstrates for the first time a genotype-phenotype correlation between an arCRD-polydactyly-association and truncating germline mutations affecting the N-terminal region of the protein. (PMID:26865426)
  • This is the first functional validation and association of C8ORF37 mutations with the BBS phenotype, which identifies BBS21. The zebrafish studies hereby show that C8ORF37 variants underlie clinically diagnosed BBS-related phenotypes as well as isolated retinal degeneration (PMID:27008867)

Function. May be involved in photoreceptor outer segment disk morphogenesis.

Subunit / interactions. Interacts (via N-terminus) with FAM161A (via central region); the interaction is direct.

Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Photoreceptor inner segment.

Tissue specificity. Widely expressed, with highest levels in heart and brain. Also expressed in the retina (at protein level).

Disease relevance. Cone-rod dystrophy 16 (CORD16) [MIM:614500] An inherited retinal dystrophy characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination, predominantly in the macular region, and initial loss of cone photoreceptors followed by rod degeneration. This leads to decreased visual acuity and sensitivity in the central visual field, followed by loss of peripheral vision. Severe loss of vision occurs earlier than in retinitis pigmentosa, due to cone photoreceptors degenerating at a higher rate than rod photoreceptors. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Retinitis pigmentosa 64 (RP64) [MIM:614500] A retinal dystrophy belonging to the group of pigmentary retinopathies. Retinitis pigmentosa is characterized by retinal pigment deposits visible on fundus examination and primary loss of rod photoreceptor cells followed by secondary loss of cone photoreceptors. Patients typically have night vision blindness and loss of midperipheral visual field. As their condition progresses, they lose their far peripheral visual field and eventually central vision as well. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Bardet-Biedl syndrome 21 (BBS21) [MIM:617406] A form of Bardet-Biedl syndrome, a syndrome characterized by usually severe pigmentary retinopathy, early-onset obesity, polydactyly, hypogenitalism, renal malformation and intellectual disability. Secondary features include diabetes mellitus, hypertension and congenital heart disease. Bardet-Biedl syndrome inheritance is autosomal recessive, but three mutated alleles (two at one locus, and a third at a second locus) may be required for clinical manifestation of some forms of the disease. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
