Abstract
⺠The BBSome-associated protein ARL6 localises to vesicles in Trypanosoma brucei. ⺠T. brucei ARL6 is N-myristoylated. ⺠RNAi knockdown causes a decrease in flagellum length but does not affect motility. ⺠TbARL6 binds to tubulin and has a relatively low affinity for guanine nucleotides. ⺠The BBSome subunit BBS1 and ARL6 are functionally linked in trypanosomes.
