BBS1

Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1 protein is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the BBS1 is_associated_with::gene. BBS1 is part of the is_associated_with::BBSome complex, which required for is_associated_with::ciliogenesis. Mutations in this gene have been observed in patients with the major form (type 1) of is_associated_with::Bardet-Biedl syndrome.

History
, research results indicated that the encoded protein may play a role in eye, limb, cardiac and reproductive system development.
