Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function During primary cilia disassembly, involved in cilia disassembly. Required specifically to control cilia retraction as well as the liberation and duplication of the basal body/centrosome. May act by stimulating AURKA activity at the basal body in a cell cycle-dependent manner. {ECO:0000269PubMed:20643351}.
Subcellular Localization Cytoplasmic vesicle {ECO:0000250}. Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=Accumulates specifically at the basal body and ciliary necklace during the early steps of cilia assembly and disassembly, when structural, functional and regulatory proteins are delivered to cilia. At S phase, accumulates in vesicles and declines during mitosis. {ECO:0000250}.
