    Summary
    Predicted to enable plus-end-directed microtubule motor activity. Involved in negative regulation of mitotic spindle elongation. Located in spindle midzone and spindle pole. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in microcephaly with or without chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, or mental retardation. Orthologous to human KIF11 (kinesin family member 11).
