Summary: Predicted to enable kinesin binding activity. Involved in neuron projection development. Located in mitochondrial membrane and neuron projection. Is expressed in gut; nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study Cayman type cerebellar ataxia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Cayman type cerebellar ataxia and cerebellar ataxia. Orthologous to human ATCAY (ATCAY kinesin light chain interacting caytaxin). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
