{{Infobox_gene}}

Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 50 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LRRC50 gene.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: leucine rich repeat containing 50| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=123872}}{{cite journal |vauthors=Duquesnoy P, Escudier E, Vincensini L, Freshour J, Bridoux AM, Coste A, Deschildre A, de Blic J, Legendre M, Montantin G, Tenreiro H, Vojtek AM, Loussert C, Clément A, Escalier D, Bastin P, Mitchell DR, Amselem S | title = Loss-of-function mutations in the human ortholog of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii ODA7 disrupt dynein arm assembly and cause primary ciliary dyskinesia | journal = Am.

Function

Leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 50 is cilium-specific and is required for the stability of the ciliary architecture. It is involved in the regulation of microtubule-based cilia and actin-based brush border microvilli.

Clinical significance

Mutations in the LRRC50 gene are associated with primary ciliary dyskinesia.
