Background Information

BBS4 (Bardet-Biedl syndrome protein 4) is one of the early BBS proteins discovered, with 35 mutations reported to cause the BBS phenotype (PMID: 26762677). BBS4 undergoes localization to the centriolar satellites of centrosomes and basal body of primary cilia, where it takes part in recruiting cargo to centriolar satellites and allowing the formation of a functional centrosomal microtubule organizing center (MTOC) (PMID: 25860617). Some research has found that BBS4 expression in humans during the development of CNS and sensory organs, concerning the cardinal clinical signs of BBS (PMID: 33860840).
