Smo dimer binds Arrb and Kif3a
Beta arrestin 1 and 2 (Arrb1 and 2) and Kif3a are required for the ciliary concentration of Smo after ligand stimulation, and the three proteins co-immunoprecipitate after treatment of NIH3T3 cells with Shh. Arrb proteins mediate the interaction between Smo and Kif3a, and the kinesin motor protein appears to promote the transport of Smo to the primary cilium (Kovacs et al, 2008).
