The same method was subsequently used to unravel the functional modules associated with nine ciliopathy-associated bait proteins, NPHP1–NPHP6, NPHP8, AHI1 and MKS1, identified in the ciliopathies nephronophthisis (NPH), Joubert syndrome (JBTS) and Meckel–Gruber syndrome (MKS) (see Glossary). This evidence concerns the gene CEP290 and Joubert syndrome.
