Possible sites of CFAP300 activity during cilia assembly. Recent reports suggest that CFAP300 plays a role at multiple sites during motile cilia assembly, including 1) during cytoplasmic dynein assembly, bound to assembly factor DNAAF2; 2) transport across the basal body; 3) transfer of cargo to the intraflagellar transport (IFT) trains by binding IFT46; and 4) transport of motors throughout the growing cilia. CFAP300 = cilia and flagella associated protein 300.
