ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to Nephronophthisis, in particular to the NPHP6 protein (nephrocystin-6) and nucleic acids encoding the NPHP6 protein. The present invention also provides assays for the detection of NPHP6, and assays for detecting NPHP6 polymorphisms and mutations associated with disease states.
