Summary
Predicted to enable microtubule binding activity and plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in chemical synaptic transmission; dense core granule cytoskeletal transport; and vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to act upstream of or within mitochondrion transport along microtubule. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic vesicle membrane and neuron projection. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including axon; dendrite; and microtubule. Implicated in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A1; carcinoma (multiple); multiple sclerosis; neuroblastoma; and pheochromocytoma. Biomarker of hepatocellular carcinoma.

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.
