Summary
Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; microtubule binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including habituation; swimming behavior; and transmission of nerve impulse. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and microtubule. Is expressed in head; hindbrain; and midbrain. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in complex cortical dysplasia with other brain malformations 3. Orthologous to human KIF2A (kinesin family member 2A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

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.
