Facts about Protein TALPID3.
May play a role in ancient ciliogenesis in the disappearance of centriolar satellites which preceeds ciliary vesicle formation (PubMed:24421332). Involved in regulation of cell intracellular organization.

Ubiquitously expressed (PubMed:26386044). Expressed in photoreceptor cells (at protein level) (PubMed:26386247).
Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome. Photoreceptor inner segment. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, microtubule organizing center, centrosome, centriole. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton, cilium basal body. Forms a ring-like structure at the extreme distal end of both mother and daughter centrioles (PubMed:24421332). In photoreceptor cells localized to the joint between the inner and outer segments, specifically localized at the mother centriole (basal body) and the adjacent centriole as well as between the two centrioles but not in the connecting cilium (PubMed:26386247).
