The intraflagellar transport (IFT) machinery plays a crucial role in the bidirectional trafficking of components necessary for ciliary signaling, such as the Hedgehog, Wnt/PCR, and cAMP/PKA systems. Defects in some components of the IFT machinery cause dysfunction, leading to a wide range of human diseases and developmental disorders termed ciliopathies, such as nephronophthisis. The IFT machinery comprises three sub-complexes: BBsome, IFT-A, and IFT-B. The IFT protein 54 (IFT54) is an important component of the IFT-B sub-complex. In anterograde movement, IFT54 binds to active kinesin-II, walking along the cilia microtubule axoneme and carrying the dynein-2 complex in an inactive state, which works for retrograde movement. Several mutations in IFT54 are known to cause Senior-Loken syndrome, a ciliopathy. IFT54 possesses a divergent Calponin Homology (CH) domain termed as NN-CH domain at its N-terminus. However, several aspects of the function of the NN-CH domain of IFT54 are still obscure. Here, we report the 1 H, 15 N, and 13 C resonance assignments of the NN-CH domain of human IFT54 and its solution structure. The NN-CH domain of human IFT54 adopts essentially the α1-α2-α3-α4-α5 topology as that of mouse IFT54, whose structure was determined by X-ray crystallographic study. The structural information and assignments obtained in this study shed light on the molecular function of the NN-CH domain in IFT54.
