The function of ENSG00000182504 (CEP97, centrosomal protein 97) is as follows. Acts as a key negative regulator of ciliogenesis in collaboration with CCP110 by capping the mother centriole thereby preventing cilia formation (PubMed:17719545, PubMed:30375385, PubMed:30404837). Required for recruitment of CCP110 to the centrosome (PubMed:17719545). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17719545, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30375385, ECO:0000269|PubMed:30404837}.
