Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Actin & cytoskeleton regulation
  • Cilia length regulation

Function

Regulation of integrity of the centriole distal end and membrane anchoring. Complex with OFD1 to initiate ciliogenesis and control cilia length (26643951). Involved in cilia formation and regulating the interaction of PCM1 satellites with and motors (20551181). Regulates the assembly and maintains the stability and dy mics of . It may inhibit tubulin assembly by sequestering soluble tubulin (28694353).
