Function

Role in the pre-assembly and targeting of ciliary protein complexes. Ruvbl1 may be a major organiser of dynein arm complex assembly (29959317). Essential for cilia motility in both zebrafish and mouse, cooperating with Ruvbl2 through the assembly of ciliary ODAs and IDAs, requires Ruvbl2 for stability. Essential for the stabilization of axonemal dynein intermediate chain 1 (DNAI1) and DNAI2 in mouse,and facilitates dynein arm assembly in cytosolic foci enriched with R2TP-like complexes (29113992). Depletion of HsRuvBL1 in RPE1 cells leads to the loss of primary cilia (28574207).
