| Function |
Plays an important role in centriole assembly and/or stability and ciliogenesis (PubMed:20008567). Involved in early steps of centriole duplication, as well as in the later steps of centriole length control (PubMed:19109428). Acts in concert with POC1A to ensure centriole integrity and proper mitotic spindle formation. Required for primary cilia formation, ciliary length and also cell proliferation (PubMed:23015594). Required for retinal integrity (PubMed:25044745). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19109428, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20008567, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23015594, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25044745}.

| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19109428, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23015594}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20008567}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, spindle pole. Note=Component of both mother and daughter centrioles. Localizes to the basal body and centriole adjacent to the connecting cilium of photoreceptors and in synapses of the outer plexiform layer. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8BHD1}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in the retina. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25044745}.
