UNC119B is an ARL3 effector that binds directly to the myristoyl moieties at glycine 2 of NPHP3 and CYS1 (Wright et al, 2011). Myristoylation is required for the ciliary localization of these proteins (Wright et al, 2011; Tao et al, 2006), and both mutation of the glycine 2 myristoylation target in NPHP3 and siRNA knockdown of UNC119B dramatically reduce the ciliary localization of NPHP3 and CYS1 (Tao et al, 2006; Wright et al, 2011; reviewed in Schwarz et al, 2012).
