INVS (Inversin) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with INVS include Nephronophthisis 2, Infantile and Nephronophthisis 16. Among its related pathways are Wnt Signaling Pathway and Pluripotency. INVS encodes a protein containing multiple ankyrin domains and two IQ calmodulin-binding domains. The encoded protein may function in renal tubular development and function, and in left-right axis determination. This protein interacts with nephrocystin and infers a connection between primary cilia function and left-right axis determination. A similar protein in mice interacts with calmodulin. Mutations in INVS have been associated with nephronophthisis type 2. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for INVS.
