Summary
IFT88 (intraflagellar transport 88, HGNC:20606) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 13q12.11, encoding Intraflagellar transport protein 88 homolog (Q13099). Positively regulates primary cilium biogenesis.
This gene encodes a member of the tetratrico peptide repeat (TPR) family. The encoded protein is involved in cilium biogenesis. Mutations of a similar gene in mouse can cause polycystic kidney disease. Several transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 45 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
