PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	N-terminal transmembrane domains
	regions of coiled-coil structure
	three nuclear localization signals (NLS)
	C-terminus of EVC2 regulates stability and localization of EVC and EVC2

HOMOLOGY

interspecies

ortholog to murine Lbn

Homologene

FAMILY

CATEGORY

unknown/unspecified

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	plasma membrane
	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytoskeleton,microtubule
text	localize to the basal bodies of primary cilia

basic FUNCTION	involved in bone formation, maybe coexpressed and coregulated with EVC
	with EVC, having function coordinately in cardiac development and loss of this coordinate function results in the characteristics of EVC syndrome
	essential component of IHH signaling in the growth plate
	endogenous EVC and EVC2 are mutually required for their translocation to cilia

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	bone development

PATHWAY

metabolism

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	EVC and EVC2 are mutually required for maintaining their protein levels and localization
	EVC/EVC2 complex interacts with SMO and is required for signal transduction events
	promotes recruitment of GLI3 to the tips of cilia
	EFCAB7 is a possible modifier gene in EVC and EVC2 and its related disorders

	System Type Disorder Pubmed cancer     could represent new targets for anti-tumoral therapy

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

	bovine chondrodysplastic dwarfism
	Evc2-/- mice develop a short-rib skeletal dysplasia resembling EvC due to diminished activity of the Ihh pathway in the growth plate
