Type:  Family Name:  McKusick-Kaufman/Bardet-Biedl syndromes putative chaperonin
Description:  McKusick-Kaufman/Bardet-Biedl syndromes putative chaperonin (MKKS, also known as BBS6) is a chaperonin-like protein that is involved in folding newly synthesised polypeptides []. As part of the BBS/CCT complex mediates BBSome assembly, which is involved in regulating ciliogenesis and transport of vesicles to the cilia []. During mitosis, MKKS localises throughout the pericentriolar material (PCM) and the intercellular bridge. It is required for cytokinesis []. Mutations in MKKS gene cause McKusick-Kaufman syndrome (MKKS), which is autosomal recessive developmental disorder []. Mutations in MKKS gene also cause Bardet-Biedl syndrome 6 (BBS6), which is characterised by usually severe pigmentary retinopathy, early-onset obesity, polydactyly, hypogenitalism, renal malformation and mental retardation []. Short Name:  MKKS
