    Summary
    Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity; microtubule motor activity; and microtubule plus-end binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including attachment of mitotic spindle microtubules to kinetochore; cytoskeleton organization; and regulation of neurotransmitter receptor localization to postsynaptic specialization membrane. Predicted to be located in cytoplasmic microtubule; kinetochore; and microtubule plus-end. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including glutamatergic synapse; microtubule cytoskeleton; and postsynapse. Orthologous to human KIF2C (kinesin family member 2C).

    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.

      Status: VALIDATED

      Description
      Transcript Variant: This variant (3) differs in the 5' UTR, lacks a portion of the 5' coding region, initiates translation at an alternate start codon, and uses an alternate in-frame splice site in the 5' coding region compared to variant 1. The encoded isoform (3) is shorter than isoform 1, but has an additional internal amino acid.
