Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function Involved in membrane protein trafficking at the base of the ciliary organelle. Mediates recruitment onto plasma membrane of the BBSome complex which would constitute a coat complex required for sorting of specific membrane proteins to the primary cilia. Together with the BBSome complex and LTZL1, controls SMO ciliary trafficking and contributes to the sonic hedgehog (SHH) pathway regulation. May regulate cilia assembly and disassembly and subsequent ciliary signaling events such as the Wnt signaling cascade. Isoform 2 may be required for proper retinal function and organization. {ECO:0000269PubMed:20333246}.
Subcellular Localization Cell projection, cilium membrane {ECO:0000250}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium axoneme {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body {ECO:0000250}. Note=Appears in a pattern of punctae flanking the microtubule axoneme that likely correspond to small membrane- associated patches. Localizes to the so-called ciliary gate where vesicles carrying ciliary cargo fuse with the membrane (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Most abundant in brain and kidney. Expressed in heart and eye. Isoform 2 is expressed only in the retina. {ECO:0000269PubMed:20333246}.
