Component of the intraflagellar transport (IFT) complex B required for transport of proteins in the motile cilium. Required for transport of specific ciliary cargo proteins related to motility, while it is neither required for IFT complex B assembly or motion nor for cilium assembly. Required for efficient coupling between the accumulation of GLI2 and GLI3 at the ciliary tips and their dissociation from the negative regulator SUFU. Plays a key role in maintaining the integrity of the IFT complex B and the proper ciliary localization of the IFT complex B components. Not required for IFT complex A ciliary localization or function. Essential for maintaining proper microtubule organization within the ciliary axoneme.
Cell projection, cilium . Localizes at the base to the ciliary transition zone. .
