Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP hydrolysis activity; microtubule binding activity; and microtubule motor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including microtubule bundle formation; midbody abscission; and regulation of cytokinesis. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including intercellular bridge; midbody; and spindle. Predicted to be part of kinesin complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; microtubule; and nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in restrictive cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human KIF20A (kinesin family member 20A).

What's a GeneRIF?

Results suggest that coupling between actin and microtubule cytoskeletons driven by Myosin II and KIF20A ensures the spatial coordination between RAB6-positive vesicles fission from Golgi/trans-Golgi network membranes and their exit along microtubules.
Title: Coupling fission and exit of RAB6 vesicles at Golgi hotspots through kinesin-myosin interactions.

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.
