CBY1 (Chibby) was identified as a nuclear protein that directly interacts with the C-terminal region of β-catenin and inhibits β-catenin-mediated transcriptional activation by competing with Lef-1 for binding to β-catenin. Epistasis experiments in Drosophila placed chibby downstream of wingless and upstream of armadillo. |

CBY1 cooperates with 14-3-3ε and 14-3-3ζ to facilitate nuclear export of β-catenin. Akt kinase phosphorylates CBY1 at serine 20, which creates a 14-3-3 binding motif; 14-3-3 binding sequesters CBY1 in the cytoplasm and CBY1, 14-3-3, and β-catenin form a stable tripartite complex causing β-catenin to partition into the cytoplasm. |

CBY1 harbors bona fide nuclear localization signal (NLS) and nuclear export signal (NES) motifs and constitutively shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm. Efficient nuclear export requires cooperative action of the intrinsic NES, 14-3-3, and CRM1 nuclear export receptor. 14-3-3 docking promotes CBY1 binding to CRM1 while inhibiting its interaction with importin-α, and NLS/NES-dependent shuttling of CBY1 modulates β-catenin intracellular localization. |

CBY1 forms a stable homodimer through a heptad repeat of four leucine residues in its C-terminal coiled-coil motif. Alanine substitution of two or more leucine residues abolishes homodimerization. Homodimerization is required for efficient interaction with importin-α and subsequent nuclear translocation, but monomeric CBY1 retains the ability to bind β-catenin and repress its transcriptional activity. |

CBY1 promotes adipocyte differentiation by inhibiting β-catenin signaling. Ectopic expression of CBY1 induces spontaneous differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes, while RNAi depletion of CBY1 blocks adipogenesis. Embryonic fibroblasts from Cby-deficient embryos show attenuated adipogenic differentiation. |

CBY1 is a centriolar component specifically located at the distal end of the mother centriole and is essential for assembly of the primary cilium. CBY1 interacts physically with the distal appendage component Cenexin (ODF2), which abrogates CBY1's inhibitory effect on β-catenin-mediated transcription in a dose-dependent manner. Cenexin is required for recruitment of CBY1 to the mother centriole, but CBY1 is dispensable for Cenexin localization. |

CBY1 facilitates basal body docking to the apical cell membrane during airway multiciliated cell differentiation through proper formation of ciliary vesicles at distal appendages. CBY1 is recruited to distal appendages via physical interaction with CEP164, then associates with Rabin8 (a GEF for Rab8) to promote Rab8 recruitment and efficient assembly of ciliary vesicles. |

CBY1 localizes to an ~250-nm ring at the distal end of the mature centriole (dependent on ODF1/Ofd1) and promotes the recruitment of Ahi1 to the transition zone. In Cby1-knockout cells, centriole-localized Ahi1 is reduced, impairing ciliogenesis and ciliary recruitment of the Joubert syndrome protein Arl13b. CBY1 deletion causes cystic kidneys in mice. |

Co-expression of TC1 and CBY1 results in relocalization of TC1 from nucleolus to nuclear speckles where it colocalizes with CBY1. |

CBY1 uses its N-terminal disordered module to bind 14-3-3ζ and its C-terminal coiled-coil for self-association and TC-1 binding. |

CBY1 (PIGEA-14) was identified as an interacting partner of the C-terminus of polycystin-2 (PC2) via yeast two-hybrid screen. Co-expression of CBY1 and PC2 in LLC-PK1 and HeLa cells caused redistribution of both proteins to the trans-Golgi network, suggesting CBY1 regulates intracellular trafficking of PC2. CBY1 also interacts with GM130, a cis-Golgi component. |

CBY1 protein is prominently associated with centrosome/basal body microtubule structures in embryonic lung epithelial progenitor cells and at the base of motile cilia in airway ciliated cells. CBY1 is a direct downstream transcriptional target of the master ciliogenesis transcription factor Foxj1. Loss of CBY1 results in alveolar airspace enlargement with reduced proliferation, abnormal epithelial cell differentiation, and failure of basal body docking in airway ciliated cells. |

DZIP1 forms a multimeric complex with CBY1 and β-catenin at the basal body of primary cilia during cardiac valve development. A specific DZIP1 peptide is required for stabilization of this complex and suppression of β-catenin activities. Loss of DZIP1-CBY1 interaction leads to increased nuclear β-catenin, elevated MMP2, altered ECM, and myxomatous valve phenotype. |

In CML cells, CBY1 protein stability is reduced upon binding to 14-3-3σ, a process mediated by BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase and AKT phosphorylation of CBY1 at serine 20. JNK phosphorylation of 14-3-3σ at S186 promotes dissociation of CBY1 from 14-3-3σ. The ubiquitin-proteasome system reduces CBY1 stability via enhanced SUMOylation when CBY1 is bound to 14-3-3σ. |

The Cby-Fam92 module (near the ciliary membrane) and the Cep131-Cep162 module (near the axoneme) cooperatively maintain Cep290 at the basal body and control the initiation of ciliogenesis. Concurrent deletion of members of both modules leads to complete loss of Cep290 from the basal body and blocks ciliogenesis at its initiation stage. |
