The cytoplasmic domains of these proteins interact with the C terminus of podocin (NPHS2; MIM 604766), and the genes are expressed in kidney podocytes, cells involved in ensuring size- and charge-selective ultrafiltration (Sellin et al., 2003 [PubMed 12424224]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]","ncbiEntrezGeneId":55243,"ncbiEntrezGeneUrl":"http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/55243","proteins":[{"symbol":"KIRR1_HUMAN","href":"/api/1.0/protein/KIRR1_HUMAN"}],"hgncRootFamilies":[{"name":"Immunoglobulin superfamily domain containing","href":"/api/1.0/gene_family/Immunoglobulin+superfamily+domain+containing"}]}
