Summary: Predicted to enable GTP binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of cytoskeleton. Acts upstream of or within male germ-line stem cell population maintenance. Located in ciliary basal body and microtubule. Is expressed in several structures, including gonad; liver; lung; muscle tissue; and spleen. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in keratoconus. Orthologous to several human genes including TUBA3C (tubulin alpha 3c) and TUBA3D (tubulin alpha 3d). [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.
