Summary: Predicted to enable GTP binding activity and GTPase activity. Involved in branch fusion, open tracheal system. Located in cytoplasm. Colocalizes with microtubule cytoskeleton. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; embryonic/larval tracheal section; sense organ; sensory cluster; and sensory nervous system primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Joubert syndrome and retinitis pigmentosa 83. Orthologous to human ARL3 (ADP ribosylation factor like GTPase 3).
