    Summary
    Predicted to enable GTP binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in microtubule cytoskeleton organization and mitotic sister chromatid segregation. Located in cytoplasmic microtubule; pericentriolar material; and spindle microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including head mesenchyme; heart; nervous system; sensory organ epithelium; and tooth. Orthologous to human TUBG2 (tubulin gamma 2).

    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.
