Summary
Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and double-stranded RNA binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and mitotic cell cycle. Predicted to be located in axonemal microtubule; intercellular bridge; and mitotic spindle. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and microtubule. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Leber congenital amaurosis with early-onset deafness. Orthologous to human TUBB4B (tubulin beta 4B class IVb). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
