An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Meckel syndrome, type 1 also known as MKS1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MKS1 gene.[1]

Function

The MKS1 protein along with meckelin are part of the flagellar apparatus basal body proteome and are required for cilium formation.[2]

Clinical significance

Mutations in the MKS1 are associated with Meckel syndrome[1][3] or Bardet–Biedl syndrome.[4]
