TULP1

Also known as LCA15, RP14, TUBL1, tubby like protein 1, TUB like protein 1

Tubby-related protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TULP1 gene.

Gene data

TULP1

Name: TUB like protein 1
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: LCA15, RP14, TUBL1

This gene encodes a member of the tubby-like gene family (TULPs). Members of this family have been identified in plants, vertebrates, and invertebrates. TULP proteins share a conserved C-terminal region of approximately 200 amino acid residues. The protein encoded by this gene is thought to play a role in the physiology of photoreceptors. Mutations in this gene are associated with recessive juvenile retinitis pigmentosa and Leber congenital amaurosis-15. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016].
