Defects in TTC8 are the cause of Bardet-Biedl syndrome type 8 (BBS8). This is a genetically heterogeneous, autosomal recessive disorder and the primary features of this syndrome include retinal dystrophy, obesity, polydactyly, renal abnormalities and learning disabilities. Experimentation in non-human eukaryotes suggests that this gene is expressed in ciliated cells and that it is involved in the formation of cilia. Alternate transcriptional splice variants have been characterized.Synonyms: Bardet-Biedl syndrome 8 protein, TPR repeat protein 8, Tetratricopeptide repeat protein 8
