CEP90 is required for the assembly and centrosomal accumulation of centriolar satellites, which is essential for primary cilia formation.
Centriolar satellites are PCM-1-positive granules surrounding centrosomes. Proposed functions of the centriolar satellites include protein targeting to the centrosome, as well as communication between the centrosome and surrounding cytoplasm.
