Subcellular localization

basal body

Functional category

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

Function

Colocalizes and interacts with Rab8, Rab11 and IFT20. Participates in ciliogenesis by controlling cilium growth, by promoting the transport of endosome-associated ciliary cargo to the base of the cilium. Required for Smo trafficking to the ciliary membrane.
