This study shows that the prenylated C‐terminus of RPGR can bind to PDE6δ with high affinity, suggesting two distinct binding sites of the RPGR/PDE6δ complex. The serine residue at the −3 position relative to the prenylated cysteine seems to play a key role in defining the selectivity of PDE6δ towards ciliary prenylated cargo.
