Summary: Enables phosphatidylinositol binding activity. Involved in several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; non-motile cilium assembly; and regulation of signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; embryonic morphogenesis; and regionalization. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; neural ectoderm; and notochord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in neural tube defect. Orthologous to human FUZ (fuzzy planar cell polarity protein). [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.
