Subcellular location [CC]Cell projection, cilium membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22085962};
Lipid-anchor {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22085962}. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium axoneme {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22085962}. Note=Expression is enriched in the ciliary axoneme. Localization to cilium is mediated via interaction with UNC119 and UNC119B, which bind to the myristoyl moiety of the N-terminus.
