Functional category

  • Ciliary assembly/disassembly
  • Trafficking (BBSome, small GTPases, vesicular transport, ATPases)

Function

Associated with autosomal recessive cone-rod dystrophy. IFT-associated cargo with BBSome-dependent cell autonomous and non- autonomous functions at the ciliary base, maintaining the structural and functional integrity of cilia (27930654). Ciliary Rab28 and the BBSome negatively regulate extracellular vesicle shedding (32101165)
