Function
The BBSome complex is required for ciliogenesis but is dispensable for centriolar satellite function. This ciliogenic function is mediated in part by the Rab8 GDP/GTP exchange factor, which localizes to the basal body and contacts the BBSome Rab8(GTP) enters the primary cilium and promotes extension of the ciliary membrane. Firstly the BBSome associates with the ciliary membrane and binds to RAB3IP/Rabin8, the guanosyl exchange factor (GEF) for Rab8 and then the Rab8-GTP localizes to the cilium and promotes docking and fusion of carrier vesicles to the base of the ciliary membrane
Tissue Specificity
Widely expressed.
Cellular Localization
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, centrosome. Cell projection, cilium membrane. Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes to nonmembranous centriolar satellites in the cytoplasm
