Summary: Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and GTPase activity. Involved in cilium organization; receptor localization to non-motile cilium; and sensory perception of chemical stimulus. Acts upstream of or within motile cilium assembly. Located in several cellular components, including cell projection membrane; ciliary inversin compartment; and leading edge of dendritic growth cone. Is expressed in head and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Joubert syndrome 8. Orthologous to several human genes including ARL13B (ADP ribosylation factor like GTPase 13B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

The authors demonstrate that ARL-3 is a unique small GTPase with unusual high intrinsic GDP release but low intrinsic GTP binding rate. Importantly, ARL-13 acts as a nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) of ARL-3, while UNC-119 can stabilize the GTP binding of ARL-3. We further show that excess inactivated ARL-3 compromises ciliogenesis.
Title: GTP-binding of ARL-3 is activated by ARL-13 as a GEF and stabilized by UNC-119.
The ciliary targeting and restricted localization of NPHP-2, ARL-13, and UNC-119 does not require TZ-, doublet region, and InvC-associated genes in C. elegans.
Title: The nphp-2 and arl-13 genetic modules interact to regulate ciliogenesis and ciliary microtubule patterning in C. elegans.
data reveal a novel but conserved role for the SUMOylation modification of ciliary small GTPase ARL13B in specifically regulating the proper ciliary targeting of various sensory receptors
Title: SUMOylation of the small GTPase ARL-13 promotes ciliary targeting of sensory receptors.
Data suggest that two conserved small GTPases, ARL-13 and ARL-3, coordinate to regulate intraflagellar transport and that perturbing this balance results in cilia deformation.
Title: The small GTPases ARL-13 and ARL-3 coordinate intraflagellar transport and ciliogenesis.
arl-13 interacts genetically with other ciliogenic and ciliary transport-associated genes in maintaining cilium structure/morphology and anterograde IFT stability
Title: Joubert syndrome Arl13b functions at ciliary membranes and stabilizes protein transport in Caenorhabditis elegans.
