    PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
    STRUCTURE
    motifs/domains
  • a beta-stranded N-terminal domain, a seven-bladed beta-propeller
  • C-terminal half of BBS9 dimerizes in solution, and this C-terminal dimerization interface might be important for the assembly of the BBSome

    basic FUNCTION
  • may be involved in parathyroid hormone action in bones
  • required for the localization of G protein-coupled receptors to primary cilia on central neurons
  • mediate LEPR trafficking and impaired LEPR signaling underlies energy imbalance in the disease
  • key conserved role of BBS9 in biogenesis and/or function of cilia
  • play a central role in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton and control the cilia length through alteration of RHOA levels
  • required for ciliogenesis during cranial suture development
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • part of complex composed of seven highly conserved BBS proteins, the BBSome, localized to nonmembranous centriolar satellites in the cytoplasm but also to the membrane of the cilium
  • part of a BBS7-BBS2-BBS9 assembly intermediate referred to as the BBSome core complex because it forms the core of the BBSome
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • ARL6-BBS1 interaction is reinforced by BBS9
