Function

Also knwown as FU. Participates in Hh sig ling, 9+2 cilia biogenesis and function, as well as assembly or mainte nce of the central pair apparatus. Interacts with Kif27 (19305393), Spag16 and Pcdp1 (23907739). Required for cilia orientation and the integrity of the whole radial spokes head. Essential for recruiting radial spokes head proteins to the axoneme. Mutations are associated with a novel PCD variant (28543983). Stk36 null show craniofacial abnormalities and defects in organs where hedgehog sig ling is required (21746835).
